7042 S. Perry Avenue
Chicago, Illinois 60621

Come check out some of Chicago's treasured and talented spokenword artists, lyricists and poets!

This event delivers a fresh approach to a popular idea. Complete with mood setting dj, this weekly open-mic adds old school flavor to south-side smothered soul. Come for the dynamic poetry workshop and advance your literary work with writing exercises facilitated by established local teaching artists, stay for the open mic reading featuring well-known performers citywide, up and coming writers and you. Poetry on Perry is a safe space for all artists to cultivate their craft and build an artistic community of like minds and interests. The first rule is there are no rules…anything goes. This open-mic is open to poets, authors, songwriters and performers.
