IWC January Open Mic/Open Slam
Join us for an evening of poetry, fun, and friendly competition at BNA Burger (in the BNA tasting room)! IWC presents our Open Mic and Open Slam! Entry is a $6-$10 sliding scale, and $5 for members.
Doors are at 6:30 pm, and sign up begins promptly at 6:30 pm with our hosts. We have 5 open mic spots and 5 open slam spots—with cash prizes for the open slam! Spots are first come, first served. Both food and drink will be available from BNA.
There are two single user, gender-neutral washrooms available and the space is wheelchair accessible.
Our programming is made possible by the City of Kelowna, the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies at UBC Okanagan, and BNA Brewery.
We respectfully acknowledge that we live and work in the unceded, ancestral territory of the Syilx people. It is a privilege to be able to put on events as uninvited guests on their land.
