Three Rooms Press will be well-represented in San Francisco as a posse of poets head to the City by the Bay to participate in LitQuake, the annual Bay Area festival of contemporary literature. We'll be reading at ArtZone 461 Gallery (461 Valencia, between 15th and 16th) at 6 pm on Saturday, October 17, as part of the festival's LitCrawal event.
