    Dos Gatos Press is a small non-profit press dedicated to the promotion of Texas poets and poetry. It is owned and operated by poets Scott Wiggerman
    and David Meischen.
     
    Our primary means of promotion is the production of the annual Texas Poetry Calendar, now in its tenth year, a continuation of the fine calendars that Flying Cow Productions originally produced. We also offer a series of readings each year to introduce the public to the work of the poets in each calendar.

    Finally, as a 501(c)(3) organization, we strongly encourage you to make a tax-free donation on behalf of Dos Gatos Press and the poets of Texas.
