Raising Voices Since 2008

Guelph Spoken Word aims to create an open, intergenerational community that fosters spoken word artists to express themselves and create a career for their art. 

Slam!

Picture
Poetry? Slam! Poetry? Slam! Slam? Poetry!!! On the third Saturday of every month, poets get up on stage to compete for a grand prize of $100, in an interactive show where five randomly selected judges gives poets a score out of 10. Join us!
