Have you ever dreamed of being on the radio? Do you crave an audience for your poetry, or do you have a favorite poem that you wish the whole world had read? Look no further, because we are thrilled to continue our partnership with
Spokane Public Radio’s Poetry Moment! You may have heard SPR’s Poetry Moment on SPR Classical (KSFC 91.9), which airs every weekday at 9am and provides an outlet for the creatives of Spokane, and a daily dose of poetry for all listeners. We’re offering all festivalgoers a chance to record their own Poetry Moment in the Central Library’s podcasting studio! Poetry Moment readers will be welcome to share a poem by their favorite poet, or read their own work. Readers will be chosen on a first-come-first-served basis, so we encourage you to show up early to form a line.
Please make sure to read the guidelines here before you arrive. Don’t miss the chance to share a Poetry Moment on the airwaves!
To check out an
example, here are five poems read for the Poetry Moment by festival author Laura Read, including one of her own.
This event is free and open to the public, no tickets are required, but participation is first-come-first-served. Folks will sign up with a volunteer outside the studio to record.
Thank you to
Spokane Public Radio and the
Spokane Public Library for their partnership!
Survey feedback is crucial to our program in many ways, including helping us obtain critical grant funding.
Please take a few minutes to complete our official festival survey after you've attended any of our events! Feel free to also leave us feedback here on Sched on individual events, but it really helps us immensely when people fill out our official survey!
