Austin International Poetry Festival

The Austin International Poetry Festival is a nonjuried four-day poetry festival involving poetry readings, workshops, open mics, poetry slams, and haiku.[1][2][3] Austin Poets International publishes two Anthologies for the festival. These are di-vêrseʹ-city (Adult Anthology)[4][5] and di-vêrseʹ-city Youth Anthology[6] - which are also read by the poets during poetry readings at the festival.[7]

The 24th Annual AIPF will be April 7-10, 2016.

The AIPF is partially funded by the City of Austin Cultural Arts Division and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
