BuckSlam is the Twin Cities' only monthly poetry slam, and on June 11th, we're hosting our first ever un-scored open mic. Have you been holding out on us? Have you been avoiding sharing your work? Have you been nervous about getting "scores" from "judges" who think they "understand" poetry? Well this is your month! Come by Moon Palace Books at 6:30pm to listen, read, or just hang out with other poetry lovers. We'll have a special feature set from members of the 2025 BuckSlam Poetry Team -PLUS- celebrate our final show at Moon Palace before we move to our new venue for season 3 (more info coming soon!) See you there, buckos!

Doors at 6:30pm. Show at 7pm.

$1 cover. NOTAFLOF.

Sign-ups open the morning of the slam and close at 6:55pm!
