Poetry and spoken word has been a part of Arete Living Art's multimedia shows since inception. At times poetry is presented with interactive video playing the role of poet. Arete Living Arts has also been presenting poetry events since 1996 when Caeser Pink was host of Maxwell's Poetry Society performance night.
