In collaboration with HYFIN, this non-competitive evening of live spoken word, poetry, and storytelling celebrates Black and Brown voices and brings together a blend of curated speakers with storytellers drawn from the audience.

Featured tellers: B. Wyzdom, LIV, Shelly Conley, and Yomarie “YoMo” Castellano.

Throughout the night, you can also submit an UltraShort. These are short stories (a few sentences) on the night’s theme that the emcee reads on stage. (They can be anonymous!)

Want to practice your story before the slam? Join us for the StoryStarter workshop from 5:15-6:15pm right before the event! Save your seat for the workshop HERE.
