Albuquerque, New Mexico. June 28, 2008. So, remembering the slam and wanting a festival but knowing I couldn’t hack one alone, I approached Susan McAllister of the Harwood Art Center. Her experience on the National Poetry Slam would be invaluable to planning a new poetry festival in Albuquerque and her long history of supporting poetry endeavors ranging from performance to print anthologies has always been inspiring to me. I asked if she’d like to see another poetry festival happen and she said yes.
