About
In celebration of Culture Days, Join us Friday October 13th, 7pm at the Downtown Brandon Public Library for a 'Poetry Slam'.
What is a Poetry Slam?
A poetry slam is a competitive art event in which poets perform spoken word poetry before a live audience and a panel of judges. While formats can vary, slams are often loud and lively, with audience participation, cheering and dramatic delivery. Hip-hop music and urban culture are strong influences, and backgrounds of participants tend to be diverse.
