Come to KMAC on Saturday, August 23rd at 5:30pm for an Open Mic! Instead of competitions, the summer Poetry Slam events are open mics. That means it’s the perfect opportunity for nervous orators and seasoned poets alike to experiment with something new! Competitive poetry slams will return in September.
Interested poets should arrive around 10 minutes early to meet with the slam host, Lance Newman (a.k.a Mr. SpeadLove). The KMAC Poetry Slam is presented in partnership with Lance Newman and Young Poets of Louisville. Thank you to Baird for sponsoring this event.
**Note: This Open Mic is on August 23rd, not the last Saturday of the month**
