The Dikeou Collection Writers will have an opportunity to peruse your gifts and any other advertising or contact materials you want to include. Please contact us at the addresses below if you have any questions. James Belflower, PotLatch Poetry, james.belflower@gmail.com PotLatch Poetry promotes an exchange economy surrounding poetry books, chapbooks, journals and ephemera: a revolving bookshelf, moving material through the hands of writers across the world. PotLatch is concerned with the inherent limitations of a regionalized, institutionalized, or otherwise constrained exchange of poetry. It exists to enliven and expand a spirit of trading and gifting. Every item on PotLatch is either for free or trade. We hope you find what you're looking for, and share what you have! The Dikeou Collection is Free and open to the public every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, 11-5pm, or by appointment. For more info contact info@dikeoucollection.org or call 303-623-3001
