Austin International Poetry Festival, April 4-7, 2019
Austin Poets International (API), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, promotes literary excellence by uniting poets from around the world to celebrate the diversity of humanity through the power of written and spoken word.
API’s three program activities are the Austin International Poetry Festival (AIPF), di-vêrsé-city Anthologies, and Youth Literacy.
AIPF includes unique Austin venues, diverse themed poetry readings, open mics, workshops, music & poetry, anthology readings, a dusk to dawn open mic, and a poetry panel. AIPF has hosted poets from over 50 countries from across the globe.
There are two di-vêrsé-city anthologies - one for adults and one for youth. Poets of majority age from around the world may submit candidate poems to the adult anthology.
In addition to the Youth Anthology, API's Youth Program poetry readings, workshops, and a poetry slam.
Our 27th Festival is dedicated foremost to poetry, to past and present API Board members; to volunteers, venues, members, affiliated organizations, patrons and sponsors, and poets from all corners of the world, and the City of Austin - it takes a village to raise a Festival. Thank you for helping us celebrate poetry by taking part in the "largest, non-juried Poetry Festival in the United States."
