​“Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself...
Go forward and make your dreams come true.”
​~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our current issue, the Dreamers and Displaced, is a collection of works from artists across the globe who join with a spirit of cultural unity, of erasing the divides that exist between lands, and creating a space of universal belonging...Through these works, artists address these themes with a poetic sense of unity, of rising above misconceptions that divide humanity, of sharing the word that wisdom and love are possible—and it is through art that we can make this happen. 
Current Issue: The Dreamers and Displaced
Poets and Dreamers was created in 2001, after executive editor-in-chief Anne Marie returned from a transformative journey through the Mediterranean. What began as a series of literary salons, writing workshops, and spoken word performances expanded into a worldwide circle of literary & fine artists who believe that words, art, and music act as a transcendent bridge, and allow us to create the lives we have imagined.

Poets and Dreamers Press and the Poets and Dreamers Journal of Literary & Fine Arts exist as opportunities for authors and artists to actualize themselves and their works through the collaboration and circulation of literary and fine arts.

Poets and Dreamers

San Clemente, CA

So we travel on earth seeking the terrain of Poetry, walking through wilderness and empty landscape or visiting those ancient sites like Dholavira in far-western Gujarat, or Mykenai in the Greek Peloponnese, or the Arawak campsite on eastern Carriacou in the Grenadine Windward Isles, pursuing that authenticity of experience in a form of antique material reality...

These are places, strange and vague situations where death is manifold and thoroughly extant to the careful eye. There are women’s bangles made of shell to be picked up from the saline dust or small copper beads and thin chert blades, or tiny obsidian arrow-heads that can be unhidden and disclosed beneath those bloody grey walls about the Lion Gate, or beautiful indented potsherds and ceramic fragments at the waterline where the Atlantic rolls out its long blue visceral waves...
