Green Earth Poets Cafe published its first Anthology of poems and short stories of the seniors at the Albany Neighborhood Senior Center. This Anthology is the culmination of the SU-CASA program funded by NYC Council Member Robert E. Cornegy, Jr. 36 CD https://council.nyc.gov/district-36/ . For twenty weeks Green Earth Poets Cafe teaching artist Nicole Najmah Abraham guided and inspired up to 20 seniors in her weekly class where they learned creative writing and poetry performing. The published Anthology was the end result of the seniors creative writing projects collected. Many seniors have never been published authors and welcomed this idea. This is Green Earth Poets Cafe first published book of poetry which is now available on the blurb website (see link) for $9.99. All proceeds will benefit the Albany Neighborhood Senior Center with future poetry programs.
