Join Three Rooms Press for a festival of international proportion! The third weekend in September, we are gathering on a stage in Brussels to celebrate cutting-edge poetry, performance, art, and, of course, Dada! The International Underground Poetry Fest will feature the pre-publication launch of Philip Meersman’s This Is Belgian Chocolate, the European launch of Maintenant 8, and performances, seminars, workshops, an art expo, and an awards ceremony. Admission to all events is free, so come one, come all!
