What is a poetry slam?

A poetry slam is an open mic for poetry where the points matter. Judges are randomly selected from the audience to determine our slam champion for each month. Secret prize for 1st place! Sign up to perform an original poem on the night, or just come be part of our audience. We'd love to have you!
