IWC OPEN MIC
Our Open Mic and Open Slams are a staple of Inspired Word Café, well beloved and attended by many of the creative writing community in Kelowna. Come by BNA Burger at 1254 Ellis Street at 7:00 pm on select Thursdays each month to hear what local poets, musicians, and other writers have to offer! Plus, stay for the second half for our Open Slam, with some healthy competition, heckling judges, and cash prizes! BNA Burger offers a minor-friendly environment, with both food and drink served during our events. The space is wheelchair accessible and offers single user, gender neutral washrooms.
The season runs from September to April, and sometimes includes a special reading event and interview instead of an Open Slam—keep your eyes peeled for those special events!
Doors and sign ups both open at 6:30 pm. There is a $6-$10 sliding scale entry. Sign ups are first come, first served, and in high demand, so if you want to read, make sure to mark your calendars!
