Belfast Poetry Festival Open Call 2024

 

The 19th Annual Belfast Poetry Festival seeks creative proposals from poets, performers, artists, and workshop facilitators interested in participating in this year’s festival, which takes place October 18-20, 2024 in downtown Belfast, Maine. Founded in 2004, the Belfast Poetry Festival is an all-arts festival with poetry as the driving force, a feast of poetry, community, and artistic possibility. For the 2024 festival, we are seeking proposals for poetry readings, performing arts experiences, collaborative multi-genre experiences, craft workshops, visual arts installations, circus arts, and other community-centered activities celebrating creative expression.

Submission Guidelines:

Proposals are due by April 15, 2024 and can be sent to belfastpoetryfestival@gmail.com, with “2024 BPF proposal” in the subject line. Submissions will be reviewed by the Festival Steering Committee and selected participants will be notified by May 15, 2024.
