Slamlandia Digital Poetry Open Mic
June 4, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeWe are pleased to announce that Slamlandia will be hosting another digital poetry open mic this month. This open mic – only poetry, no music please – will take place on June 4th. We’ll be hosting this event with the help of Literary Arts.
You can access our Zoom link in advance – we will share it once it is available.
Sign ups for the open mic will be posted at 6:30pm day of via Facebook posts and an Instagram story. Comment / reply to get your name on the list. Open mic will promptly begin at 7pm. Poets gets 3 minutes to share poetry – please do not go over time!
We will not have a feature for this show. All proceeds will be donated towards Black Visions Collective.
A quick run down of Zoom: click the link we’ve shared, register, and that will give you access to the Zoom chat space on the 4th. During the show the host will keep everyone except the person currently reading muted – and then will unmute everyone for 5 seconds after poems are over for everyone to cheer.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! We look forward to seeing your faces on all our laptops / phones this Thursday evening! See you then!
