The City that Never Takes a Break--or stops celebrating art...

There is a great deal happening all over the boroughs this summer. Here are two from POETS HOUSE:
18th Annual Poets House Showcase, a display of all the poetry books published in the United States in the last year, on view through Saturday, July 31 during regular library hours. Admission to the Showcase is free. Read about the 18th Annual Poets House Showcase in the New York Times. BTW--it's air conditioned with a river view!

*Poets House Showcase Readings* are held in conjunction with the above. Coming up is a reading of several poets from *Persistent Voices*--a much acclaimed anthology that brings to life the poetry of poets who died from AIDs. Among the poets whose work will be read by other poets: Melvin Dixon, Tim Dlugos and Tory Dent.
Admission to the Showcase is free.
