The world of writing & poetry is in a major transition. As slam circuits fade and writers find themselves on shakier ground, Unspoken Word offers something vital: a space for folks to breathe and find balance through community.
This isn’t just another festival. It’s a retreat, a reunion, a rebellion.

Unspoken Word invites artists to restore their voice — beyond the score.

I create the way art arrives but most of the time, it shows up in poetry, on canvas and on stage.
Whichever way, I hope you catch the light and we can shine together.
