About this Event

Looking to make a bigger impact with your wit and wisdom?

Wordplayfest s a one-day festival that empowers artists, performers, educators and leaders to expand their self-expression and create positive change in their communities through language arts–namely improv and standup comedy, music and storytelling.

  • Hip Hop: Jaw-dropping performances by conscious hip hop artist, Azlon, and comedian rapper, Scoochie Boochie
  • Comedy: Workshops and performances by improv and standup artists
  • Storytelling: Frameworks to tell your story in compelling, hilarious and heart-wrenching ways with public speaking trainer, Colleen Schell
  • Puns: Back by popular demand: a heated war of the words between team Thought and Team Bot with our Human-vs-ChatGPT Pun Competition
  • Community: Local vendors and artisans of food, beverages, clothing, accessories, and plenty of opportunity to meet new friends and collaborators.
  • Musicians, Mischief, Magic... and much, much more!

Get tickets now as space is limited--we are keeping this intimate to encourage connection.

Come curious and leave inspired by the off-the-charts talent, new skills, courage, and connections--this is the perfect place to meet your new future bff, jam partner, accountability buddy, or improv player.
