# Three Rooms Press

Three Rooms Press is a New York City-based small press. It was founded in 1993 by Kat Georges and Peter Carlaftes with a focus on poetry, but the press now publishes mainly fiction, memoir, and art. Three Rooms Press's name was inspired by one of the themes in Harold Pinter's play The Homecoming. The press also manages an annual international dada art and poetry journal called Maintenant, which was featured by the Brussels Poetry Fest in 2016 and 2017. Issues of Maintenant have been featured and sold in museums such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and the BelVUE Museum in Brussels. Three Rooms Press books are distributed by PGW / Ingram.
