WordPlay: Special Edition
April 24, 2008 by onairTonight, tomorrow, and Saturday the WordPlay team will be bringing the featured readings of Asheville Wordfest 2008 to the airwaves, live and in real time. Tonight’s reading will feature Patricia Smith, one of the great slam poets of our era, and Rick Chess, head of the writing program at UNCA. It’ll get underway at 7:00 PM. If you can’t be there, in UNCA’s Humanities Lecture Hall, then tune in here.
Tomorrow’s event will feature Simon Ortiz, MariJo Moore, and Kathryn Stripling Byer, North Carolina’s Poet Laureate.
Coming up Saturday: Pulitzer Prize Winner Galway Kinnel, and Katemeh Keshavarz, translator of the Persian mystic poet Rumi.
Both these events will also kick off at 7:00 in the same venue – and right here at WPVM.
The festival offers many more readings, performances, celebrations, and workshops, so do check out the WordFest website. The website will also offer streaming video of the events we broadcast here, so click over if you’d like to see what the characters producing these voices actually look like.
The broadcasts are a joint project of WPVM, MAIN, WordFest Asheville, and, of course, the WordPlay crew.
See you on the air,
