Announcing Our Premier Issue!!

The Poetry Street Project is proud to announce that its premier issue will be launched on September 27, 2008 at the Quad Cities Unity Festival 2008 in LeClaire Park in Davenport, Iowa, as part of the ServiceNation campaign's National Day of Action.

Contributors to the publication (writers, artists, etc.) will receive FREE admission to the multicultural festival featuring music, food, and performances celebrating the diversity of Quad Citians. Contributors will also receive three free copies of the publication. The magazine has no official cover price, but there is a suggested donation of $2 per copy.

The festival runs all weekend. Admission is just $2, or the donation of two non-perishable grocery items. Hours are Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., followed by a concert from 6 p.m. to midnight. Concert admission is $10 and proceeds go to support the Rock Island Elks education scholarship fund. Sunday hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The Poetry Street Project is in need of a 10-foot by 10-foot, or a 10-foot by 20-foot, canopy or tent for use during the festival. Donations to cover costs are also appreciated.

Come and celebrate with us!
