Many of this year's venues are in downtown Austin. Parking is not as easy as it used to be, so plan to carpool or use public busses. There is a bus stop on E. 12th Street, one block south of Heritage House. For those who don't mind walking 8 or 10 blocks, free public parking is available below IH 35, between 6th and 8th Streets. So, po-folks, this is it.
Most events are free, unless otherwise noted.
Some venues pass tip jar for featured poets. Poet and Barton Springs swimmer Susan Bright will have a booksigning Monday night for her new book of poetry about Barton Springs, Breathing Under Water. Susan is a wonderful poet and a great friend of Austin and Barton Springs. If you can't make it you can order a copy from Plain View Press. Hideout hosted by Sarah Durfor.
