This week marks the 30th annual National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, NV. In both spoken word and song, the culture and tradition
s of the American West are celebrated by cowboys, ranchers, farmers, city folk, country folk, and anyone who treasures the heritage of this uniquely American phenomenon. The week long fest includes poetry readings, musical performers, films (Westerns, of course), crafts and more. For a taste of the genre, EPL’s collection includes Buckaroo: Visions and Voices of the American Cowboy.
