U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo at the 2020 CLMP Virtual Benefit


We were thrilled to have U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo join us at the 2020 CLMP Virtual Benefit on October 22. Harjo kicked off the evening by talking about the essential role CLMP has played in American literature and the importance of literary magazines and small presses to her development as a poet.


For 50 years, CLMP has been a sustaining lifeline—raising publishers’ organizational capacity, helping them connect their writers to more readers, and serving as a dependable, essential hub for nurturing community support. Please consider supporting us in this important work!
