Kim Roberts, editor of Beltway Poetry Quarterly, was one of four finalists for the 2010 Mayor's Arts Award in the category of Service to the Arts. Although she didn't actually WIN, she reports that it was great to get the recognition. The tenth anniversary celebration of Beltway Poetry Quarterly continues; Kim recently hosted a reading of guest editors at the Split This Rock Poetry Festival, and a reading of contributors to the anthology Full Moon on K Street: Poems About Washington, DC (Plan B Press) at the Library of Congress. The next anthology reading takes place on April 15 at 7:00 pm at Women & Children First Books in Chicago, which will be our farthest reading venue outside of DC.
Kim asks if there are WOMPOs who are former DC residents who have not yet communicated off-list with her, to please identify themselves! She can be reached at beltway@mac.com. For more information on the tenth anniversary events, please see: washingtonart.com/beltway/tenth.html.
