Call for Artwork: Nebraska Poets Calendar

Black Star Press is seeking artwork for a calendar featuring Nebraska poetry and art. They are seeking art by Nebraska artists that somehow relates to a poem chosen for a particular month or season in Nebraska. The artwork does not necessarily need to illustrate the poem, but to dance with the images called forth in the poem, which relates somehow to the images and experiences of living in Nebraska.
