ABOUT THE NEW HOPE POETS
The New Hope Beat Poets Society is an open forum with a mission - to write, laugh, and celebrate the literary arts.. The group was started by John Hensel, late author of Tales of a Suburban Gypsy and long time New Hope resident.
Hensel was deeply committed to fostering and preserving the rich tradition of literary arts in New Hope, and established “Beat Night” as a forum for poets to allow for this exchange.
