Want to learn more about poetry slam? Want to join a slam team and travel to competitions? Want to attend Brave New Voices in Madison, WI this July?

Join us for the 2025 Slam Team Interest Meeting! We’ll be covering all the bases:

What is poetry slam?
What is Brave New Voices?
How do I qualify to join the team?
How far away is Madison, WI?
What other cool places might I travel with HES’s slam team?
How can I get a college scholarship from poetry?

All youth ages 14-19 (or who will be 14-19 by July!) are welcome to try out for the team. The interest meeting is for youth and their families to meet Heard Em Say, learn about the process, and ask any questions!
