Southwest Poetry Slam Finalists


The (K.)N.E.W. MN Youth Poetry Slam semifinals, presented by TruArtSpeaks, begins tonight Monday March 4 at the Capri Theater from 5-7 PM.  Four Southwest Poets will be competing:  Laresa Avent, Fatima Camara, Jalisa Hunter and Angelica Espinoza

The second semifinal is on Monday March 11 at The Whole from 7-9 PM.  Southwest Poets Tamera Larkins and Nazeem Cunningham will be competing. 

Come out and support these young Southwest poets.  You can also financially support and sponsor a young poet's trip to compete in the international BRAVE NEW VOICES Youth Poetry Slam Festival (BNV) this summer in Chicago.
