VERSe Ottawa is a collective of Ottawa organizations who curate and produce reading and performance series. One of the principal strengths of VERSe is the inclusion of both traditional written- and spoken word poetry groups.
This year’s festival features Mary Ruefle, Mary Pinkoski, the Dope Boys, David McFadden, Moe Clark, Michael Burkhard, Elizabeth Bachinsky and dozens more. There’ll be a film, lectures, performances and readings.
