Where would Jack Kerouac live today if he was still bouncing around New York? Answer: Bushwick. Obviously…

Those who live or spend time in the area have noticed: Bushwick right now is NYC’s latest front of exciting new and emerging artists. From music, to art, poetry and prose, Bushwick is a place of dedicated artists toeing the line of expression.

I am pleased to announce that working with some established poetry editors, we have the green light on putting together poetry anthology featuring the diverse poetic talents currently residing in Bushwick. The theme does not need to be about Bushwick (But it can be!). We are looking for poetry from the area. Have your work featured in a hardcopy book that will be placed in various local bookstores and available online.

If you are an artist interested in submitting ideas for cover art, we would also love to hear from you. Please send submissions to BushwickPoets [at] Gmail [dot] Com.
