Australian Poetry Slam : Workshop
Thursday 3 September 2026 at 6:00PM
Melton Library & Learning Hub
Event Description
Ever wanted to tell your story with oomph, perform your poems with power or just deliver a speech without a slide-show clicker?
Word Travels presents Australian Poetry Slam (APS) 'Wordshops' to help you select from the thousands of metaphors running through your head. Learn how to slam your poetry – how to move a live audience with your words.
Award-winning spoken word artist Megan J Riedl inspires you to get your thoughts on paper, then rip scrawled leaves of passion from your notebook and ignite them on stage. This is your chance to make your stories matter; to transform your introspective ideas into crowd roars and finger clicks.
