Cadence Video Poetry Festival
About
Welcome to Cadence Video Poetry Festival!
Cadence Video Poetry Festival, co-directed by Chelsea Werner-Jatzke and Rana San, is a series of screenings, workshops, and discussions on the genre of video poetry during National Poetry Month.
Cadence approaches video poetry as a literary genre presented as visual media that makes new meaning from the combination of text and moving image. Featuring screenings, an artist residency, generative workshops for youth and adults, artist gatherings, and a virtual poetry book fair, Cadence fosters critical and creative growth around the medium of video poetry.
8th Annual Cadence Video Poetry Festival Apr 25–27 [In-Person] & Apr 25 – May 4 [Online]

Cadence hosts a virtual Poetry Book Fair as a literary resource to share the work of artists the festival has featured and worked with over the years. If you are a current or former Cadence participant, we’d love to include your book in the lineup!
