The Kalamazoo Poetry Festival Celebration of Community Poets is back for 2026! We are excited to welcome the public to this FREE event.
Doors open at 6pm, and show starts promptly at 6:30pm.
Come hear local poets and musicians perform their own work at The Crawlspace Theatre, located inside the KNAC in downtown Kalamazoo.
There will be light refreshments and a DJ for some socializing afterward. Please come out and support local art! Bring a friend or ten, and make an evening of it.
Hope to see you there!
As we approach the event, we will be promoting the performers, so keep an eye out on our posts!
