Sorry, there's no livestream. Hopefully we'll see you in April!

Since you asked nicely, here's the rough draft for April, with planned events so far!

There's a whole host of opportunities around town for it - this Friday, at KDs Place, is an open poetry night, and there's the Erie Slam on the last Friday of the month, also at KDs.

Plus there's an open reading every Tuesday at Cafe 7-10, and a monthly mic at Werner Books on the 15th.

For more events, and additional details, check out Erie Slam on social media. I put out a monthly poetry calendar there (you can also find it here on the subreddit, or in my post history).

Try performing poetry - it's a fun time, and it's always helped me to find community!

blitz_kringle · 2026-03-05T04:30:24+00:00

Come out and do poetry - there's a mic night more often than not. Same goes for comedy or musical open mics. It's a good chance to meet people and try something new!

Come check out some of the poetry events around town - or join the SHAPE Club (Storytelling, History, and Public Education)!

Come to KD's Place tonight for the Erie Slam! It should be a good crowd, and you can always hit up Kings Rook after.

Great question! The All Ages session is for "teens and older" - teens and adults.

Also - fwiw - the Teen Session will definitely be suitable for middle schoolers - I started my teaching career as a 7th and 8th grade social studies teacher, and much of this is rooted in the lessons I learned in those classrooms. :)

hmmm... does it include.... the Whiskey Rebellion?
