About this Event

Certified Poetry Slam – The Final Spot


Join us for the Certified Poetry Slam, where 12 poets battle for the final slot in the Certified Pens Showcase and a $100 cash prize! Each poet gets one round to bring their best work—no second chances, just pure fire.


After the slam, stick around for an open poetry cypher where anyone can step up and spit. Whether you’re competing, sharing, or just vibing, this is a night for the poetry community to come together.


This event is also a fundraiser for the Certified Pens Showcase on April 26th, featuring Fanta Ballo and Truely Certified. Come out, support the culture, and witness raw talent at its finest!


Want to compete? Limited spots available—sign up now!


Tickets & donations go toward supporting artists and making the Certified Pens Showcase unforgettable. Let’s build, let’s spit, let’s certify greatness.
