What better way to kick off 2025 than by coming out for some amazing poetry!

Join us on Saturday, January 4th, for a curated poetry showcase. This event is being put on by local poetry mics, The People's Poets and Slamlandia, with all proceeds going towards the 2025 Bigfoot Poetry Festival and the People's Poets' Black History Month showcase.

Hosted by Brianna Renae and Julia Gaskill, this poetry reading starts at 7:00 PM at the Barrel Room (). The entrance to the Barrel Room is through the gate on Couch St.

We'll hear poetry from: Afreakano, Jolie Brownell, Brennan DeFrisco, Marcus Lattimore, Joshua Merritt, myrah, Jennifer Nicole, and Victoria.

The Barrel Room will have food and drinks for purchase - plus signature cocktails and mocktails made especially for this event! This show is 21+.
