TRANSPOESIE 2020: Let's go vir(tu)al !
23 Sep 2020 - 16 Oct 2020
TRANSPOESIE TURNS 10 YEARS and this year celebrates with hybrid events on-line and on-site, opening the festival to a world wide audience!
For 10 years TRANSPOESIE has been organized by EUNIC Brussels and celebrates language diversity, inspired by the European Day of Languages. This year’s edition will include poets from 26 countries and regions, sharing poetry in their native languages internationally through poetry readings on-line!
For its 10th birthday TRANSPOESIE will partner up with the European Poetry Platform VERSOPOLIS. The events will be virtual – the celebration undeniable! Shared throughout Europe simultaneously, transpoesie.eu is the place to be.
The TRANSPOESIE hybrid poetry readings will take part in Zoom webinars, and will be screened live on social media. The events will be moderated live, with public access, from the Hungarian Cultural Institute (Treurenberg 10, 1000 Brussels), awaiting poetry enthousiasts to join this hybrid poetic experience. Please note that there is limited seating to the live events in the Hungarian Institute, hygiene measurements are in place for public safety and pre-registration is required.
All events are filmed and shared live on social media. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to find out more (@Transpoesie).
