The 2012 Gathering, Van Horn Texas
May 17,18,19,& 20

Crossroads is different from other gatherings in that we do not invite entertainers. If you hear about this party, and want to play, all you have to do is be in the first 42 entertainers to sign up and you are in the show. To sign up or learn more, click here. If your gathering would like to participate by hiring one or more agritainers from Crossroads, click here.

If you are a fan of Cowboy poetry, or are a poet, musician or storyteller who would like to join in the jam sessions, you are more than welcome to join in our jams! If you are a fan of cowboy music, poetry, and stories, you are guaranteed to hear material you have never heard before! How can we do this? Our format encourages aspiring agritainers to come out and give it a try. This results in people who have only recited their poems, or sang their songs in front of friends and family or co-workers being on stage with new, original material that has never been done in an open mic, let alone on a main stage!

Below is our tenative schedule for 2012. While we won't be dropping anything from the schedule, we may be adding a thing or two, so check back from time to time or follow us on  facebook to keep up with the latest developments!
