Learn to wow the crowd with your words and feel confident in front of a live audience. Find inspiration all around you and hone in on your stories in this year's exciting "wordshop" facilitated by our current Australian Poetry Slam Champion and two-time QLD champ, Huda the Goddess! Our wordshop on 29th August will help you write a revolution! Then, bring the fire to the Coffs Harbour Library poetry slam heat on 30th August.Australian Poetry Slam pops up stages everywhere. From July to October, APS heats and workshops connect storytellers across the nation, leading to the National Final as part of Story Week 2022.Are you the next Australian Poetry Slam Champion?Huda the Goddess is the current Australian Poetry Slam Champion and two-time QLD champ. Huda is a spoken word poet, educator, mental health advocate, dancer and workshop facilitator. She describes poetry as one of her senses that allows her to turn her experiences into art and is currently working on her first poetry collection.

Having the chance to make people feel something will always be her goal as an artist.
