The Art of Slam Conference will provide an intensive poetry slam immersion where emerging poets can grow their art through writing and performance workshops, performances, panels, and Q&A's with professional poets. Three tracks are available: teacher, teen, or adult. Each out of state performer (2) will perform for 30 minutes each. The public may register for the conference, and the evening performances will be open to the public.
