The Winter Festival of Poetry, a program of the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets, is Wisconsin's longest continuously running poetry program of its size. Hosted by poet James Roberts, this 8-week series features six poets each week, reading for roughly 10-12 minutes each.
Each year the readings are centered around a theme. This year's theme is horses, recalling works by Joy Harjo (She Had Some Horses), Alice Walker (Horses Make a Landscape More Beautiful), and others.
The readings are free and open to the public.
