Featured workshops will explore the practices of ekphrasis, investigation, lyric and form, the connection between internal and external worlds and poetry in times of crisis. An afterparty will be hosted by Greg Bem of Carbonation Press and Cascadia 2050, Cascadia Poetics Lab's youth initiative, at Jude's in Rainier Beach.
Sponsors of the Festival include 4Culture, Creative West, National Endowment for the Arts, Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs, ArtsFund, La Sala, Subud Greater Seattle and ArtsWA.
