PEERS Alliance and PEI Rape and Sexual Assault Centre are proud to host the 8th Annual OUTspoken Poetry Slam, sponsored by City Cinema, for Pride PEI’s Pride Week Celebrations.
Join us as we celebrate our communities’ diverse vigour through inclusive, poetic storytelling. We welcome folks from all decades, all backgrounds, all genders, and no genders, to join us joyfully as we recount tales of blossoming desires, sexual awakening, audacious defiance, and sheer strength in the face of adversities.
Slam Poetry is not a passive experience. Slam Poetry stomps its feet and rattles the bars of complicity to create movements that challenge the status quo. This year, we want to focus on what radical forms of consent mean to you. In our friendships, with lovers past and present, in community, within our activism, our art. How we build communities of consent with our actions, movements, voices?
You’ll have four minutes to titillate us, move us to tears, or both with your righteous slams. Interested in participating? Get in touch by emailing: [email protected]
Please note that while the event will be all-ages, there will be themes of sexuality and exploration present in most, if not all creative works! OUTspoken is sober, free, and always will be.
Space is limited and will go quickly. Reserve your seat early.
