Poets will have until the end of January to submit for one of the presentation slots at the Montserrat Poetry Festival to be held at Montserrat Vineyards (Missouri, USA) in May. Organizers are seeking poets to present original works that would help comprise an entertaining and varied program for a general audience.(See information about the 2009 Festival)
Event organizer Mark Pearce requests that interested writers submit 10 poems – around 6 of which may ultimately be presented at the event. Pearce suggests that each entrant submit works that are audibly accessible and that will illustrate a variety of themes and styles within the body of work. Send duplicate copies of works, as the submissions will not be returned.
Submissions can be sent to:
KMOS-TV
Att: Poetry Festival
Wood 11 – UCM
Warrensburg, MO. 64093
Submission deadline is January 30th, 2010. The number performance slots are limited, so not everyone submitting poems will be chosen to present. The presentation line-up for the festival will be announced in mid-February.
The 2010 Poetry Festival is being sponsored by KMOS-TV – Missouri’s Public Television Station and by Montserrat Vineyards, which will once again be hosting.
The Poetry Festival will take place Sunday afternoon, May 23, 2010 at Montserrat Vineyards, Montserrat, Missouri. |
