“Catch some of the most talented teens in the city at today's Teen Poetry Slam (and if you know a young poet who'd like to compete, have them sign up at urbanwordnyc.org). This is the next generation of artists; show your support!”
Leah Taylor, Flavorpill
NYC’s hottest teen poets compete for a chance to represent their city at the Brave New Voices National Teen Poetry Slam. To enter, poets must be 13-19 years old, and signup at urbanwordnyc.org or show up. First come first serve. Audience members are encouraged to come early, as seating is limited. Since 2004, Dance Theater Workshop and now New York Live Arts has been collaborating with Urban Word NYC to support urban youth in their development of hybrid performance work for the stage.
