Verse meets visuals in motion at Northwest Film Forum (NWFF) in April. Cadence Video Poetry Festival, presented by Northwest Film Forum, programmed in collaboration with Seattle author Chelsea Werner-Jatzke and artist Râna San, is a series of screenings, workshops, and discussions on the genre of video poetry, taking place annually during National Poetry Month. This year’s festival takes place in-person April 21–24 and online April 21 – May 1.

Cadence approaches video poetry as a literary genre presented as visual media, cultivating new meaning from the combination of text and moving image.

EPFC is delighted to partner with Cadence for the second year in a row with Haiku You, a free all-ages online film/poetry workshop. Sign up here! http://www.archive.echoparkfilmcenter.org/events/haiku-you-an-all-ages-film-poetry-workshop-april-edition/
