To slam you’ll need 2 poems, each can be up to 3minutes.
OPEN-MIC:
– Slots are up to 5mins, but no minimum length.
– if you want to play an instrument, please bring your own gear / guitar and patch cord. We only have one mic + cord. For anything more elaborate, please reach out in advance, or you could play acoustically.
There are stairs and NO ramps, but please be in touch and we will see how to help accommodate your needs.
FREE SPEECH / INTENTIONAL GATHERING :
This is a free speech platform centred around inclusivity, community, respect for human rights and dignity. We don’t allow hate speech in any form. We embrace an anti-oppression, anti-racist and decolonization framework from the Sinixt territory to Palestine, Lebanon, the Congo and beyond.
ALL AGES event, but be warned that subject matter and language may vary (eg: swearing may occur). We ask people to us a TRIGGER WARNING for content that may be traumatic (*ask us if you need clarification).
