What is the goal of NOVACon?

NovaCon's purpose is to unite the local art community in an effort to create more opportunities and strengthen relationships between the artists and patrons. Our goal is to help all of the artists in Lubbock and the surrounding communities get together, share ideas, and make art.

Above all have fun with art!

Novacon Poetry Jam!

Jam out and let us hear your righteous licks in the Sunset Room.

The Poetry Jam will be a one hour event during the convention in which artists perform their best poetry rap.

On Nov. 1st the Novacon, Lubbock's only art convention, is coming to town. It will be held at the Garden and Arts Center on 44th Street and University Avenue in Clapp Park.

A few guidelines...

Poems must take less than five minutes to perform. Any props needed for the performance must be provided by the poet. You must perform for the Poetry Jam. This is not a simple poetry reading. Say it with feeling, use body language and motion to get your idea across. Poets who are unable to do this may be better suited for other venues.

How to enter

To enter the Poetry Jam, e-mail a video of your performance to bakkacreative@gmail.com by Oct. 25. Video formats must be compatible with Windows Media Player. Poets who are accepted to read in the Poetry Jam will be notified by Oct. 27 and will be asked to attend a "dress rehearsal" at the GAC on Oct. 29th. We will try to contact all poets who submit their work.
