Guelph Spoken Word

Raising voices since 2008

We're still here through the pandemic!

Staying connected to creativity and community during these times of upheaval and isolation is more important than ever. Although the pandemic is still present, we have made the decision to resume in-person events and hope you will join us in reconnecting after so much time. Join us at our monthly Guelph Poetry Slam including a feature set (!!) on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 8:00pm ET (check Eventbrite for location).

Indigenous community members are also invited to join an online monthly Indigenous Writer's Circle led by Hope Engel and Kevin Wesaquate on the last Wednesday of the month at 7:00pm ET. 

​Thank you to the City of Guelph for supporting our programming during the pandemic.
"You will find poetry nowhere, unless you bring some of it with you."

Guelph Spoken Word operates on the traditional territory of the Chonnonton, Anishinaabek, and Haudenosaunee peoples, and treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We acknowledge the Two Row Wampum and Dish With One Spoon Covenant, and are responsible for upholding the agreements our ancestors made here. Indigenous peoples are integral to the story of this land. It is up to each of us to repair the damage done by settlers and the state of Canada, and build relationships based on reciprocity, respect and reconciliation. ​
