GumptionFest music and poetry schedule

The poetry slots I have are spaced between the musical acts. As soon as the band hits its last note, the poets hit the mic. When the band is ready to go, the poet finishes up the last poem and the band kicks on. Poet slots will vary between 10-15 minutes and poets should bring enough poetry to fill the time.

Bring merch for your slot. Be prepared for a mix of attentive audiences and wandering crowds. GumptionFest is a fluid arts festival.
