December Slam
The final slam of 2013!
We had such a rad time this night. One week before Christmas, last event of the calendar year, Yours Truly emceeing, what more could you want on a cool, Victoria Thursday?! How about some amazing poets gracing the mic--'cause we had that too!

Thank you thank you thank you Victoria, this has been such an incredible year for the Victoria Poetry Project, and I assure you, 2014 is going to be even better! I'm constantly amazed, inspired, and truly truly humbled by the talent, love, and grace of our community. From everyone at the Victoria Poetry Project, I hope your holidays are/were filled with peace, warmth, and connection. Please join us in the New Year and share with us how your time was spent! So much poetry-love, friends!
PS I'm so hoping there are going to be some New Years Resolutions in place to take up the mic for the first time! Any takers...?

Vic Slam Indies
On December 5, Victoria Poetry Project held the Vic Slam Indies. The night was hosted by 2 Dope Boys in a Cadillac, and saw eight of Victoria's best spoken word poets compete for the chance to represent Victoria at the Canadian Individual Poetry Slam which takes place April 5-12 in Vancouver. The poets, who competed by invitation only, were Scott Thompson, Audrey Cockett, Pam Stewart, Morgan Purvis-Bellamano, Matthew Christopher Davidson, Justin McGrail, Keenan Proud, and Jeremy Loveday.
After four rounds of poetry, the incredible wordsmith Audrey Lane Cockett walked away the champion!
Audrey will be representing our fine city this Spring. Truly, we could not have asked for a better poet to rep our talents. Audrey has already made us so proud that she is a member of our incredible community. Congratulations, Audrey, and congratulations Victoria!
