Giorno Poetry Systems is a non-profit organization founded by an artist. It's based on the idea of artists supporting other artists.
John Giorno was a poet, an artist, and an activist who relentlessly worked to show up for others, and his spirit lives on in everything we do.
Today, we continue to build on what GPS has done for decades: producing an artist-curated event program, releasing LPs on GPS Records, putting poetry on the phone, and providing grants.

To do it, we raise funds via donations, grants, memberships, tickets, merch, licensing, and commissions.
GPS is not an endowed foundation but a public charity, and we rely on the ongoing support of our community. Your contributions make it possible for us to provide artists, poets, and musicians with transformative opportunities and to produce events and publications that can be shared with a broad and diverse audience.
