Abstract

The Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church In-the-Bowery was founded in 1966 in New York City's East Village. Inspired by the "Berkeley Renaissance" of the 1940s, the Project served as a nexus for New York poets in the 1960s and 1970s. The collection comprises forty fliers and posters featuring reproductions of handmade artwork that promoted and publicized poetry readings and other activities of the landmark project during the 1970s through the mid-1980s.

Dates: 1971-1984
