Mic Check Festival - Poetry Slam

Mic Check Festival - Poetry Slam

After a day of writing workshops, the evening poetry slam offers an opportunity for attendees to take the stage and share their own work. This event is essential to Mic Check Poetry Fest as it speaks to the heart of spoken word: listening and sharing, call and response, acceptance and vulnerability. This evening slam and open mic is a time not only to experience spoken word, but to embody it.

Time: 9:30-11:30 PM

Location: The James Theater. 213 N Gilbert St, Iowa City, IA 52245
