This will be the last chance slam for youth poets trying to make the youth slam playoffs in March. Poets who have slammed only once during the season and those not in the top 8 already will be given preference. If you’ve already qualified you are encouraged to come out and cheer on those poets still trying to make the playoffs.
Sign up starts at 7pm. Show begins at 8 with a poetry open mic followed by our featured poet, from Guelph, Ontario, Fannon Holland
“Fannon comes to us from Pittsburgh via Chicago where he met his Canadian wife … which only goes to show you that poets have great taste in women. Fannon believes that spoken word poetry is the perfect marrage between writer and actor and is honoured to put his BA in theater to good use on local and national stages.
His seven year journey to win Guelph a national title took him as close to second in the nation in 2014 and that goal was accomplished in 2016 at CFSW in Winnipeg.”
$4 for 18 and under. $6-$10 for 19 and up.
We acknowledge this event is taking place on stolen First Nations territory of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. We also strive to be a trans friendly event. Help us accomplish that goal.
It’s also CASH ONLY at the door. Be nice to our volunteer door staff please.
