Calling all Boston poetry lovers!

We’re ready for a night filled with poetry this Friday June 5th ❤

This is your limited ticket warning!

We’ve got an incredible lineup of poets, storytellers, and performers ready to take the stage for a night of unforgettable spoken word. But that's not all, we're bringing you featured artist Crystal Valentine, host Amanda Shea, spotlight poet Maya Williams and DJ Rockstone Trizz on the 1s and 2s.

We’re reaching out now so you can mark your calendars and secure your seats before they’re gone.

Our open mic sign-ups begin when doors open, so come early if you'd like a chance to share your work. A line usually starts forming a little before doors.

Bring a friend, grab a seat, and experience why Write About Now Poetry has become one of the largest spoken word platforms in the world.

Thanks for making room for poetry in your life.

Even if you can’t make it out, we always appreciate the word of mouth.
