For those that haven't heard, we've moved our program offices to the Western New York Book Arts Center at 468 Washington (Corner of Mohawk). We'll be starting a new series there in September called "Big Night," which will include one or more visiting poets around whose work we'll put together a "big night" of poetry, food, music, visual art, film, video and whatever else we can think of. Fall poets include Lee Ann Brown, Eileen Myles, CA Conrad, Simon Pettet and Sam Kaufman.
