THE BOOK LAUNCH AS A CELEBRATION!

[A Wall at Poets House]

Five poets allowed Marsh Hawk Press to present much of the diverse possibilities of Poetry during the vibrant Book Launch at Poets House!  Please enjoy our visual coverage below of the event which launched books and was followed by much conviviality over wine and appetizers!  THANKS to all who came and supported!
