Poetry to the people
Wordfest returns, with more poetry power than ever
by Anne Fitten Glenn in Vol. 16 / Iss. 40 on 04/28/2010
It’s time to get your poetry on again — because Asheville’s Wordfest wants to bring poetry to the people, all of us, rather than leaving verse in a dusty college closet where it’s only accessible to a few.
what: Wordfest 2010, local, national and international poetry festival
where: Most events will take place at Jubilee! Community Church. Check schedule for other locales.
when: Wednesday, May 5 to Sunday, May 9 (David Whyte’s talk and workshop will be held at MAHEC auditorium at 501 Biltmore Ave. All events are free and open to the public, except for Whyte events.)
