✨ Words have power. Let yours be heard. ✨

CALLING ALL POETS! Westbury Arts is thrilled to present our 6th Annual Virtual Poetry Slam, a dynamic evening of creativity, connection, and spoken word — held in loving memory of the Slam’s founder, Meagan J. Meehan.

Whether your style is haiku or hip-hop, sonnet or free verse, heartfelt or humorous — the (virtual) mic is yours! Poets will perform their original work live on Zoom, share the inspiration behind their pieces, and engage in a lively Q&A with our host and audience (yes, the chat will be buzzing!).

🎭 All poetic styles welcome.
🌎 All voices encouraged.
💬 All audiences invited.

To keep the evening welcoming for everyone, please note that poems should not contain excessive profanity, graphic violence, or explicit sexual content.

📹 The event will be recorded and shared on YouTube so the poetry can continue to inspire long after the night ends.

Poets who would like to participate should email their name, phone number, and email address to Julie Lyon at .

Come as a fan! Sit back and enjoy an uplifting evening as talented poets share their voices, their stories, and the creative spark behind their work. Discover new artists. Feel inspired. Be part of a vibrant artistic community.

Simply RSVP here on Eventbrite.
The Zoom link will be emailed to all registered attendees prior to the event date.

Mark your calendars, invite your friends, and get ready for a powerful night of spoken word and shared creativity.

We can’t wait to see you (on screen!) 🎉
