Our Two fold Mission
SYNERGY
JCPOFEST celebrates the SYNERGY between poetry, science, philosophy, technology, and all forms of artistic expression. Through multimedia, interactive, and community-based programs, we create inclusive, accessible experiences that inspire creativity, civic dialogue, and intergenerational connection across Jersey City.
CLIMATE
JUSTICE
JCPOFEST aims to cultivate community while focusing on the effects of human activity on the natural world. The festival aims to create a space for free expression and dialogue on global issues such as CLIMATE JUSTICE, climate change, its effects and sustainability.
As modern poets serve as witnesses to these challenges, we will be seeking out works that highlight urgent social and ecological issues while advocating for preservation and conservation efforts.
