In 2023 we will be celebrating 10 years of Words on the Word Stage at the Garlic & Arts Festival.
Paul Richmond has created an anthology of many of the writers who have performed at the Word Stage over the last 10 years. It will be sold for $15 at the Word Stage and the Information Booth. Be sure to come see us and get your copy.
We hope to see you at the Word Stage, this is not a children’s story telling stage. There are other areas for children.
We have uploaded to our youtube channel some of the poets who have been at the festival. You can view them Here
