Who We Are
|
Persimmon Tree, an online magazine, is a showcase for the creativity and talent of women over sixty. Too often older women's artistic work is ignored or disregarded,
and only those few who are already established receive the attention they deserve. Yet many women are at the height of their creative abilities in their later decades and have a
great deal to contribute. Persimmon Tree is committed to bringing this wealth of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and art to a broader audience, for the benefit of all.
