Women’s History Month may be ending, but Yellow Arrow still has a lot to celebrate in April. Not only is it National Poetry Month, but our fifth birthday! In honor of both occasions, we’re hosting a fundraising Poetry Series: five Fridays for our Five years.
Our second event will feature five awesome writers who will share their work on April 9th at 6pm EDT. To register, click here; you can also enjoy some incredible publication discounts (you must register before or at the same time) from publications that feature our included authors!
