Charis & Cliterati pair up to present an inviting and fierce open mic & reading series on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Hosted by the anarchic spoken wordteam of Karen G and Theresa Davis, members of the Art Amok Slam Team, this series cultivates the voices of authors, novices and an assortment of poets, songstresses and story tellers. “The Women of the World Poetry Slam is a tournament created for women, facilitated by women, honoring women,” said LaShaun Phoenix Moore, one of the founding organizers of the event. “ Participating women perform in preliminary poetry slams where competitors are scored on a scale of 1 to 10 on their poems, their presentation and their originality. Judges are chosen at random from the audience. From these events 12 poets ascend to the finals stage to determine a winner.
This year marks the third year for this competition. Previous winners include Andrea Gibson, who won the 2008 competition, and Rachel McKibbens, who won in 2009. Also in 2009, 7 of the 12 Finalists live and work in the Altanta area, one was Cliterati's own Theresa Davis. | ||
