The Bucks County Poet Laureate Community Project Committee is excited to launch Volta: Center for Writing Arts - in partnership with Bucks County Community College.
Please come see our new space in the Library Learning Studio at Bucks County Community College!
Open House: September 4 and 5 from noon to 1:30 pm
Also check out our upcoming events here: https://www.voltawritingcenter.org/upcoming-events
Our Vision: A place where writing and collaborative arts flourish:
We wish to cultivate an inviting space for writers to discover and deepen their individual voices while honoring tradition and encouraging experimentation through interdisciplinary and hybrid creativity. We believe poetry, writing, and the arts are at the heart of realizing and strengthening connections within communities and celebrating imagination. We welcome writers at all stages of artistic development to bring individual works and collaborations to life.
We are working to sponsor readings, discussions, performances, and a variety of cultural, civic, and craft workshops featuring community-based and nationally recognized writers and artists. We will house a library of poetry, fiction, drama, and creative non-fiction where our community can come together to enjoy the long-standing tradition of literary arts in Bucks County and the region.
Yes, we still subscribe to ARTstor!
Over the summer, the enormous database of images, ARTstor, completed it's migration to the database JSTOR. In order to house ARTstor's huge collection of paintings, sculpture, photography, portraits, needlework, artifacts, and ephemera, users need only select the database JSTOR from the library's list of databases! Once inside, the ARTstor selection will appear. Once selected, users can follow the instructions in this video tutorial through this link:

Our Interlibrary Loan Technician, Kelly, walked around campus handing out lollipops to those who told her why they love libraries. This informal survey on National Library Outreach Day revealed heartwarming responses such as:
“I like to read”
“It’s a quiet place to study”
“We go there after practice all the time”
