VLP Poetry Festival!
Thursday, February 25, 2010
Vermillion, South Dakota
  • Steep yourself in a day of writing & listening…and maybe even performing…poetry. Soak up the poetic goodness of Freya Manfred, Gary Dop, Marcus Merritt and Jenny Yang Cropp.
  • Write and get feedback in morning & afternoon writing workshops led by Manfred and Dop.
  • Revel in fabulous readings by Manfred and Dop during the day, then catch the spectacle (or participate yourself) of an evening poetry reading & SLAM hosted by Gary Dop.

Our visiting writers’ appearance is made possible by the South Dakota Humanities Council, the USD College of Arts & Sciences, the USD Department of English, and the Vermillion Literary Project (VLP).
