Verbatim is now in its 5th year, and will be held this October 4th at the beautiful Sugar Maples Center for Creative Arts in the Northern Catskills. Local food and drink purveyors will keep you all nourished, and Wave Farm Radio will stream live from the stage and poetry tent for those who can't attend in person. Come to experience out-there literary and sound experiments emerging from the Hudson Valley, Catskills, Western MA, Western NY, and beyond.
