LEAD DONORS & GRANTORS

Our programs are supported, in part, by the Mellon Foundation, public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council, and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Our programs are also made possible, in part, by the Academy of American Poets; the Amazon Literary Partnership; the Poetry Coalition; and the Poetry Foundation; and numerous individual donors.
