25th Annual Gathering
August 9-11, 2012
Yavapai College Campus
1100 East Sheldon St. • Prescott, AZ |
We've gathered up a great bunch of poets and singers who have been with us through the past 25 years. We think they are the finest group of reciters and singers available! We'll give them nine venues to perform in for two days and three nights, open our doors to the greatest audience in existence, and turn everyone loose to enjoy each other as they
experience this Silver Anniversary of our event. More than 70 performers will bring their cowboy poetry and music to the stage and venues to share their heritage, and the culture of the American Cowboy. |
Each year the Arizona Cowboy Poets Gathering committee chooses artwork to feature on our posters, brochures, program and web-site. It also becomes the “theme” for our poets and musicians as they attend the Gathering.
This year, for the second time, Fred Fellows from Sonoita, AZ is our guest artist.
Check out his web-site! This year's theme is "Time Flies."
