Vending machines with $2 poems inside for the Word Vancouver festival. You get a nice little read of a local artist and the artists get recognition and a little coin to continue giving you the poetry you so love.
And that idea was put into practice and wonderfully successful! Over 70 artists contributed to the Automated Poetry Project and 5 poetry dispensers were placed in key spots around Vancouver for all to enjoy.
What a unique and effective way to get small artists' work some recognition. And a great way to enjoy a nice little read while supporting them.
