Beginners' Poetry Slam (DEPOT)

Since the 1980s, poetry and performance have collided in the form of poetry slams – lively competitions of spoken word poetry – judged by the audience.

Celebrate the Bard’s birthday by bringing a poem and your personality for a poetry slam designed for beginners. If you don’t have a poem prepared, arrive at 5 pm for help creating one using blackout poetry and cut-up poetry techniques.

Tuesday, April 23rd
Blackout Poetry Workshop @ 5 pm
