'Founding Friendships: Celebrating the Legacies of Elizabeth Kray and Stanley Kunitz,' is an exhibition of art works by leading post-war artists, as well as archival material by major poets. The show gives visitors a glimpse into the social circles and friendships that underpinned one of New York's great creative eras and sheds light on the ethos that shaped the founding of Poets House 25 years ago. 'Bettissima: Treasures From the Elizabeth Kray Archives' is made up mostly of manuscripts and letters, including never-before-seen letters from E.E. Cummings, W.H. Auden and other literary luminaries.
