About this Event
Brave New Voices Festival Day 3
It's time to SLAM! Kick-off day three of the Brave New Voices Festival by cheering on 16 of the best youth poetry teams from around the country in our annual slam poetry competition.
The top 4 Teams will advance to the Brave New Voices Finals where they will compete for the title of 2024 Brave New Voices Slam Champion.
In 1996, Youth Speaks started a movement that has since bloomed some of the most significant young artists of our time. Many of your favorite rappers, directors, Tony Award-winning actors, screenwriters, activists, organizers, and of course, poets, got their start right here at the Brave New Voices Youth Poetry Slam.
