About this Event
Come hang with Desiree Mckenzie for an afternoon of spoken word poetry and vibes! No experience is required. We'll learn the starting points of telling a story through poetry and why every detail, even the tiny ones, matters most.
Desiree Mckenzie is an award-winning poet, arts educator, national poetry slam champion, voice actor, and photographer from Toronto. Her poetry and voice have been featured in works for CBC’s Poetic License series, When Sisters Speak, Clearco Financial, Button Poetry, Kids Help Phone and Home Depot.
