![]() The funding graph for Delta Mouth Literary Festival Our readers are amazing, and so are the people we interview-many of them have become friends. Tina: In general, people are very supportive. We're still building awareness in Baton Rouge but we have received significant support from Baton Rouge Gallery and from businessman Dave Remmetter, an owner at Chelsea's Cafe and Radio Bar. A lot of our organizational efforts strive to make the festival truly a community event, and we dedicate significant resources to bringing innovative literary artists out into the larger Baton Rouge community-readings/performances take place at venues around town. Remy: Wonderfully supportive! It was great to see all the community feedback about the game, whether it was private messages sent to us or people making videos of themselves trying out the demo.Īnna: The LSU literary community is pleased that student organizers have been moonlighting to bring this event together and we have received support from both the English Department and the English Graduate Student Association.

Our readers are very loyal, and many of them have sent us messages about how the stories of the people we’ve interviewed have had an effect on them, from providing general encouragement to helping them make major career decisions.

Some folks questioned the validity of this type of fundraising, with comments like, "Why doesn't the school just pay for the festival?" This was an opportunity to share information and stories speaking to the need for crowdsourced arts funding, both practically, as states slash arts and education budgets (hello, Louisiana?), and ideologically, as state-funded event will inevitably support a different group of artists than an independent event. Overall the response was positive and people admired the effort we had to put into the project to maintain activity. How did that feel?Īnna: We have some dyed-in-the-wool supporters, but we have to work pretty hard to remind a lot of busy folks that our fundraising efforts come with expiration dates and that we really truly cannot make the festival happen without grassroots funding.
