Screening: Midwest Video Poetry Fest *IN PERSON*

In person at Woodland Pattern

Join us for the 4th annual Midwest Video Poetry Fest, which will feature two screenings of new poetry videos from around the world. These films include original poems, experimental works, animation, translations, and more. Each evening’s screening will be unique and will include a selection of works from the open call alongside works by artists especially invited by the Curatorial Team. 

We’re excited to present a Milwaukee screening of the Fest in partnership with the Arts + Literature Laboratory, who launched the Midwest Video Poetry Fest in 2020 as an expansion of the collaborative and experimental work we seek to support in Wisconsin and beyond. The video poetry festival, which invites new audiences to discover (or rediscover) poetry, is the first of its kind in Wisconsin. In the first three years, it has attracted over 2000 submissions from over 91 countries.
