Poetry Marathon 2011
Friday, April 15th at 5pm through Saturday April 16 5pm
“Come early, leave late, or come late, leave early” at Artpost Gallery’s 2nd Poetry Marathon – a tribute to National Poetry Month in April. Over 70 poets took turns reading in 15 minute time slots for the entire 24-hour period. A big THANK YOU to Fiddler’s Hearth — who will be providing appetizers and brunch for Saturday morning, and to The Foundation for Light Verse, for donating publications to give away during this event, and to the African-American Chamber of Commerce, for lending more chairs!
Below is a YouTube playlist of many of the poets who read in 2011.
