About this Event

Welcome to The Butterfly Effect!

The Butterfly Effect is a monthly poetry event celebrating community, personal growth, and transformation. We honor the individual artist’s evolution, from caterpillar to butterfly, while also fostering a sense of collective strength and support among all participants.

The event features an open mic for emerging and established artists, along with a featured artist segment spotlighting two powerful voices within the community.

With a focus on love, support, and community building, The Butterfly Effect is more than just a poetry event—it's a space where people come together to collaborate, uplift, and celebrate the beauty of self-expression in all its forms. Whether you're a poet, artist, or simply someone who appreciates the power of words, The Butterfly Effect invites you to be part of a growing community of butterflies.

Join us for an evening of art, connection, and transformation. All are welcome.
