SUMMARY:VanSlam: Open Mic feat. Daniel Mark Patterson
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS \nCome join us for another night of poetry! As always\, our event is in our hybrid live & online format. Bring yourselves and your words to Community Pizza\, 1191 Commercial Dr\, or to the Van Slam zoom space. \nThis event is an open mic with a feature set from Daniel Mark Patterson! \nA bit about them: Daniel Mark Patterson (DMP) had his life changed profoundly when he stumbled into Café Deux Soleils one Monday in the May of 2008. In the last 15 years he has performed on National and International stages\, done poetry tours\, published chapbooks\, done Fringe and Theatre shows\, been on poetry slam teams\, crafted cine-poems\, published poetry for notable literary journals and won awards. He is currently writing his first novel which he is hopeful to finish by the end of the year. He finds it a delicious irony that he has such difficulty with these bios when all of his writing is about identity in one form or another\, his adventures bumbling through life and figuring out exactly who he is along the way. He is grateful to be back featuring in Vancouver where this whole crazy journey began in the first place. \nSign up to read starts at 7:30 both in person and online. See you there! \nVenue Accessibility \nMasking Policy: Masks are encouraged\, but the venue is a restaurant and members of the audience will be maskless. \nVanSlam takes place on the Unceded\, stolen Lands of the Musqueam\, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations and we wish to acknowledge & thank those people who have been stewards of this land since time immemorial. Van Slam is committed to engaging in the internal and external work of reconciliation.

SUMMARY:VanSlam: Open Mic feat. Magpie Ulysses
DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS\n\n\nCome join us for another night of slam poetry! As always\, our event is in our hybrid live & online format. Bring yourselves and your words to Community Pizza\, 1191 Commercial Dr\, or to the Van Slam zoom space. \nThis event will include an open mic\, as well as a feature set from poet Magpie Ulysses! \nA bit about our featured artist: \nWriter\, Rabble Rouser\, fancy talker; Magpie began performing poems at the age of 17 to save her life. She has performed across North America and is a veteran of the national poetry slam community in Canada where she was a member of two national champion Vancouver poetry slam teams. She was named a Poet of Honour at the Canadian festival Of Spoken Word in the Fall of 2012. \nA bit of a witch\, a nature freak and an activist at heart\, Magpie is known for her visceral\, often surrealist writings that extend from the everyday human experience into the depths of natural and inanimate worlds. Magpie has spent much of the past decade heavily involved in the arts while living in and around rural BC\, Alberta & Southern Ontario. She has spent the past few years raising a new human and more than a decade caring for her grandmother through Alzheimer’s disease. Her latest work seeks questions surrounding genetic memory\, placemaking\, grief\, aging\, our place in the natural world\, survival\, and the imminent undoing of our species. \n\nTickets are available online\, or at the door! \n\nSign up to read starts at 7:30 both in person and online.
