Poetry Festival :: Slash Pine Press

Slash Pine Press is pleased to announce the first annual Slash Pine Poetry Festival, to be held in five distinct locations in the greater Tuscaloosa, AL area on April 24th and 25th. With 40 readers, the festival draws from local and national writers, from first year graduate student poets to National Poetry Series winners, from the traditional writer to the highly experimental one. The festival aims to show that poetry at its best is an inclusive, community-building endeavor, and that such an endeavor is well and alive in one of many small cities in the Deep South.
