Do you like excitement? Do you like poetry? Then come on down to the Snite Museum of Art for the 3rd Annual WHAM! BAM! POETRY SLAM! on Thursday, March 19, 2015 from 5:00–7:30pm.
The poetry slam will consist of three rounds, with winners announced at the end of the night. Poets will read up to three original poems, in a large variety of styles. Judges will be picked at random from the audience. Poetry slams are not improvisational and they address serious issues, such as poverty, violence, racism, substance abuse, and economic exploitation, among other topics. The emphasis on audience participation also makes these events unusual. Visitors are encouraged to give feedback and judges are picked at random from the audience; they are not necessarily poetry “experts.”
Get ready to slam!
Reception & Open Mic: 5:00- 5:30 p.m.
Program: 5:30 -7:30 p.m.
Free parking is available. Please visit the Snite Museum website.
This program is free and open to the public.
