# Event Details - **Event Name**: Book Launch & Poetry Reading: CO Poets Laureate Anthology - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 05 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm – Fri, 05 Dec, 2025 at 08:00 pm - **Event Description**: Get your copy of the CO Poets Laureate Anthology signed and hear from the contemporary poets laureate. Light refreshments provided!About this EventBegin Where You Are: The Colorado Poets Laureate Anthology is a groundbreaking book featuring poetry from the ten individuals who have served as Colorado Poets Laureate.The anthology presents an overdue opportunity to compile and publish a comprehensive collection of the laureates' works, including unpublished pieces.Proceeds from the sale of this book will be used to create an endowment through our nonprofit, Colorado Poets Laureate Anthology. Our mission: enhance equitable access to poetry across the entire state.In Colorado, lower income and rural communities have lower access to poetry and the literary arts. As a result, youth and adults in these areas have fewer opportunities to engage from this art form and the benefits of self expression. In fact, there are whole counties where not a single Colorado Poet Laureate has visited in 30 years!This anthology will span over 100 years of Colorado's poetic history.Starting with the late Andrea Gibson, the book will traverse back in time to Alice Polk Hill in 1919. All five contemporary poets laureate (the late Andrea Gibson, Bobby LeFebre, Joseph Hutchinson, David Mason, and Mary Crow) have committed to re-directing their royalties to the development of the Colorado Poets Laureate endowment.We'd like to thank our charitable donors and supporters for helping create a lasting legacy in Colorado. Almost three years in the making, we are excited to celebrate the publication in the Winter of 2025! This event is supported by Bonfils-Stanton Foundation and Colorado Creative Industries.➡️ Pre-order copies of the book and learn more about our mission at: www.coloradopoets.org?
