From Molly McNulty:
Hello All
We are excited to announce our 2012 lineup for the May 17-20 Skagit River Poetry Festival. We have brought back some of our favorite poets and are excited to have many poets who have not yet been to Skagit share their poetry with us.
I hope to see all of you this spring.
Cheers,
