how do we slam?
our mission at SLAM! is to foster a non-competitive, welcoming, collaborative, and open creative space for poetry. we do this by hosting weekly general body meetings, weekly e-board meetings (if you want to work behind-the-scenes), and keeping our community/members connected through a newsletter/mailing list.
if you'd like to get involved with any of these elements, head to our contact form to send us a message!
when do we meet?
due to the pandemic, all SLAM! meetings are currently virtual, through Zoom™!
if you're interested in dropping by, or if you want to be informed of SLAM updates, be sure to fill out our common contact form!
what happens in our general body meetings?
our meetings are designed to be a chill and creative space. each meeting is slightly different; we just do what feels right that week! (whatever ebbs and flows)
we do different icebreakers and poetry exercises (written, spoken, creative) every week based on differnet topics and thematic areas.
members will have the chance to share their work, practise their poetry writing and idea generating skills in a live brainstorming session, and connect with each other over Zoom! :-)
