> DESCRIPTION

VC3 is a spoken-word poetry festival held on the pedestrian mall in historic downtown Riverside in conjunction with the city’s First Thursday ArtsWalk event. The 2007 event featured Oveous Maximus, Mark Gonzalez, and Karla Diaz. In 2008, bleachers will be set up to create an arena, and local spoken-word artists will get the chance to mix it up with new professionals during a three hour, round-robin event involving prepared performances and improvisational elements. VC3 is generously supported by the Tomas Rivera Foundation.
