SUMMARY:This Is Just To Say: spoken word open mic
DESCRIPTION:Oxford Poetry Library presents a spoken word open mic night! Join us in the library on the first Tuesday of every month to enjoy all manner of word-weaving\, story-sharing\, and spell-casting. \nWe welcome poets\, storytellers\, and writers of all kinds to share their work (or the work of others) in a safe\, supportive\, and inclusive space. Slots are 5 minutes long\, and performers sign up on the door – first come\, first served! \nThis month’s theme is TREADING WATER. Dive into the depths of survival\, resilience\, and the feeling of being stuck yet still moving. Will you sink or swim? How do you stay afloat in life’s turbulent waters? Bring your words or just come and hear others’. \nEvery month we feature a performer with a slightly extended set and this month’s featured performer to grace our stage will be Zoe Brown. Zoe is a biologist and poet from The Bahamas\, currently living in Oxford. She writes poetry rooted in her personal experiences\, exploring themes of identity\, place\, and heart. Bridging her interests in science and art\, Zoe’s poetry has been published in The Anthroposphere: The Oxford Climate Review\, featured at the 2024 Caribbean Environmental Film & Arts Festival\, and performed at the 2024 Nature-based Solutions Conference. Zoe finds joy in performing and listening to poetry and is a familiar presence at OPL and Catweazle. \nThe session starts at 7.30pm (performers are advised to arrive from 7pm)\, at The Community Works (21 Park End St\, OX1 1HU). \n£5 entry (£2 concessions)\, performers free. \nThere will be a bar at this event\, so it is no longer BYOB! \nThe building is accessible\, but if you have any specific access needs\, please drop us an email at oxfordpoetrylibrary@gmail.com beforehand!
