Translation is a seedbed for empathy, and we are proud to nurture it by publishing works-in-translation. As we enter the final week of our Across Borders and Through Time campaign, will you open your heart to the compassionate art of translation? Please, donate by Nov. 15th at bit.ly/47lSAyY

Translation, perhaps more than any other art, brings the world closer together. Your participation in this continent- and language-spanning journey is essential. Please, travel with our poets, translators, and Press community. Show your support at bit.ly/47lSAyY

Incredible works-in-translation have allowed us to experience far-away places in ways we never could have otherwise. Through the beneficence of our translators, we’ve visited a mountainside in ancient China, taken in the sound of wind and waves in Sweden, gained new perspectives in Mexico.

As a thanks, you can even receive your own copy of Arthur Sze's flagship anthology when you donate. We are honored to publish works-in-translation, supporting the poets and translators who unlock texts we couldn’t have experienced without them. Visit bit.ly/47lSAyY to make your gift by Nov. 15th!

With your help, we’ve achieved 30% of our fundraising goal, but we still have $17,000 to go! Your gift will not only propel us closer to our $25,000 goal, but uplift the projects of our poets and translators like ARTHUR SZE—whose Laureateship will culminate in a global anthology of translation.

Through your donated support of literary translation at Copper Canyon Press, you help us keep poetry, and the languages they travel between, vital and alive. Please, make your gift today at bit.ly/47lSAyY
