#FREEVERSEFEST: Charleston’s First Poetry Festival

Marcus Amaker, Charleston’s first poet laureate is spearheading the Lowcountry’s first ever poetry festival.

“The Free Verse Festival is the City of Charleston, SC’s first poetry festival. Our mission is to uplift the community by providing eclectic poetry events and workshops at multiple venues in Downtown and West Ashley. We’ll collaborate with the Charleston County School District to put poets in schools and promote the power of the written word. We’ll also treat poetry as public art, putting poems on sidewalks, napkins, t-shirts, billboards, buses and more.”
