Join the Bloomington Poetry Slam with your local wordsmiths for a night of poetry, libations, and passion! The night begins with an open mic featuring local artists, singers, musicians, and writers then ends with a poetry slam.If you've ever considered performing but needed extra encouragement, consider this it! Open mic is open to all types of stage performance. Slam is all original work, competition style.
Note for Women's History Month:
In March, we want to make sure to honor Women's History Month and prioritize voices of *all* women and femmes. These artists will have priority on stage.
❤️
This month's featured artist is Bloomington Poetry Slam Veteran, Jennifer Sue Payne!
Back from the dead! Jennifer Sue Payne is a multidisciplinary artist raised in the midwest now living in Southern California. After a surgical hemorrhage nearly killed her, left her with brain damage and bedridden while healing, Jennifer took to Cold Connection Jewelry as a way to occupy her hands and thoughts. Jennifer's poetic works are laden with themes related to medical trauma, addiction, art therapy, and the healing power of creativity.
Hosted by Andrea M. Sterling & Dan "Sully" Sullivan
Grooves brought to you by DJ Good Peoples
