Copper Canyon Press


Copper Canyon Press gets big -- and anonymous -- donation

A cry of "Holy cow!" went up when an envelope was opened recently at Copper Canyon Press in Port Townsend. Staffers were going through the post-holiday mail at the nonprofit poetry press when one discovered an anonymous donation of $50,000, the largest one-time gift the press has received from an individual. The check, written by a brokerage in Santa Fe, N.M., on behalf of an unnamed donor, was an utter shock.

Neat.

We (Oregon Literary Review) featured Broadsides from the press several issues ago.

Ten Broadsides from Copper Canyon Press.
