2015 23Rd Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog
2015 23rd Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog |Poets House|10 River Terrace|New York, NY 10282|poetshouse.org| 5 The 2015 Poets House Showcase is made possible through the generosity of the hundreds of publishers and authors who have graciously donated their works. We are deeply grateful to Deborah Saltonstall Pease (1943 – 2014) for her foundational support. Many thanks are also due to the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, the Leon Levy Foundation, and the many members of Poets House for their support of this project. 6 I believe that poetry is an action in which there enter as equal partners solitude and solidarity, emotion and action, the nearness to oneself, the nearness to mankind and to the secret manifestations of nature. – Pablo Neruda Towards the Splendid City Nobel Lecture, 1971 WELCOME to the 2015 Poets House Showcase! Each summer at Poets House, we celebrate all of the poetry published in the previous year in an all-inclusive exhibition and festival of readings from new work. In this year’s Showcase, we are very proud to present over 3,000 poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, artist’s books, and multimedia projects, which represent the work of over 700 publishers, from commercial publishers to micropresses, both domestic and foreign. For twenty-three years, the annual Showcase has provided foundational support for our 60,000-volume library by helping us keep our collection current and relevant. With each Showcase, Poets House—one of the most extensive poetry collections in the nation—continues to build this comprehensive poetry record of our time. -

Boots on the Ground a history of fort bascom in the canadian river valley James Blackshear n 1863 the Union Army in New Mexico Territory, prompted by fears of a Isecond Rebel invasion from Texas and its desire to check incursions by southern Plains Indians, built Fort Bascom on the south bank of the Canadian River. The U.S. Army placed the fort about eleven miles north of present-day Tucumcari, New Mexico, a day’s ride from the western edge of the Llano Estacado (see map 1). Fort Bascom operated as a permanent post from 1863 to 1870. From late 1870 through most of 1874, it functioned as an extension of Fort Union, and served as a base of operations for patrols in New Mexico and expeditions into Texas. Fort Bascom has garnered little scholarly interest despite its historical signifi cance. -
Pre-Post Museum Visit Activities
Pre-Post Museum Visit Activities We at the Steelworks Museum understand that this may be your students’ first experience visiting a museum or this may be their first exposure to industrial history. We have prepared the following activities to prepare your students for their museum visit and follow up activities when you return to the classroom to extend the lessons. If you have any further questions or if we may provide any additional assistance within the learning environment, do not hesitate to contact the museum curator at (719) 564-9086 ext. 108. Before the Visit: Ask the students if they know what a museum is and if they have ever been to a museum. If so, what types of things did they see? If not, ask them what they think they might see, hear, or smell at a museum. A museum collects, preserves, protects, studies, exhibits and educates about different kinds of historical artifacts, art, or scientific specimens. Ask your students what kinds of objects they collect. Have the students draw a picture or verbally explain why an object that is important to them, and which they would put in a museum. Why was this object chosen? Does it have special significance or historical value? Have each student draw a picture of a museum that they have visited or what they imagine a museum to look like on the outside and the inside. Look at pictures of our museum’s building on our website at www.steelworks.us. List comparisons between the museum today and what the building was used for in the past. -

Once you spend a little time here, you know exactly what we mean. Pueblo is still one of the most affordable communities in the nation, and it continues to feel like home to a very diverse mixture of folks from all walks of life. These tough economic times continue to be very challenging, but this “big small town” keeps pressing forward and evaluating itself in terms of creating new and better ways to conduct business, raise families, and weather the economic storms that come our way. -

Survey of Critical Biological Resources of Pueblo County, Colorado

The projects, both conducted by the Colorado Natural Heritage Program, are two distinct projects that are highly integrated with respect to methodology and fieldwork. Both projects utilized the same Natural Heritage methodology that is used throughout the globe, and both searched for and assessed the plants, animals, and plant communities on the Colorado Natural Heritage Program’s list of rare and imperiled elements of biodiversity. Each report prioritizes potential conservation areas based on the relative significance of the biodiversity they support and the urgency for protection of the site. All information explaining Natural Heritage methodology and ranks is repeated in each report, so that each report can stand alone and be used independently of the other. This report, Survey of Critical Biological Resources of Pueblo County, presents all potential conservation areas identified in Pueblo County that support rare and imperiled plants, animals, and significant plant communities, including wetland and riparian areas. -
