In August, El Tecolote celebrates 40 years of existence serving the Latino Community of San Francisco and beyond. As a part of this celebration a special 20-page edition of El Tecolote Literario is to be released on July 28, 2010. A bilingual hard-copy poetry anthology featuring the works of established poets as well as those emerging new voices is in the process at the moment. This collective reading of 37 poets is a fundraising benefit for these efforts.
