The Poet's Corner at the Museum Embankment Festival

Here, readings, musical performances, and artistic presentations invite you to linger, listen, and join in. Authors, musicians, and literary groups from Frankfurt and the surrounding region will present a diverse program on all three days of the event—ranging from poetry and prose to chansons and musical performances. The relaxed atmosphere makes Poet’s Corner a special place for meeting others and exchanging ideas away from the hustle and bustle of the festival. The program is organized by Farben International e. V. and made possible with the support of the Hessian Literature Council.
