Perform in the Mill Valley Library's Teen Slam Poetry Competition

Do you love the spoken word? Do you want to participate in one of Mill Valley’s most celebrated evenings? Register to compete in the Library’s 5th Teen Slam Poetry Competition!

On March 4th, an audience of over 200 will fill the Mill Valley Library to hear a group of talented high school students (are you one of them?) perform original works of poetry. Three judges will determine who moves on to the championship round and, ultimately, win the competition.

The legendary Jazz Hudson will be our emcee for the evening. Interested poets should read through the information on the Library’s website before registering. Poets must register by February 20th if they would like to participate. Register to compete here.

Registration to attend this exciting event (not as a poet) is open to adults and high school students only. This is a very popular event and registration is highly recommended. Register here.
