Write Here | Write Now | Speak Loud! Mass Poetry Teen Spoken Word Festival

Hosted by D. Ruff, Jha D. and Phree, this open mic is a non-competitive opportunity to share your work! If you just want to listen, come basque in the work of your peers! An open mic would not be an open mic without a supportive audience to snap, clap, cry and deeply sigh. We'll have a first come first serve sign up list for those who'd like to read, and a guest host to guide the experience. This event is for youth Festival participants only.

This open mic will take place immediately after the Last Chance Slam, in the same venue at the Grub Street Stage. Competitors in the slam and non-competitors are welcome to participate. 

Please Note: Adding this event to your personal sched does not guarantee you a spot in the open mic. Capacity for open mics are limited. We recommend arriving as early as possible. In the case a the is filled to capacity, please check out some of our other great Festival programming.
