The Sacrificial Poets and Flyleaf Books are teaming up to provide a community wide open mike every first Wednesday night. Come share or listen to poems, prose, songs, or any other personal expression with an audience of open minds and ears. This event is open to all ages. The Sacrificial Poets are a youth Performance Poetry Team, composed of youth ages 13-19 from the Chapel Hill-Durham area. The students are chosen in a local competition (Slam) and required to attend practices, workshops, and local community performances. Now in their fifth year, they teach how to work effectively in a team environment; learn to effectively express themselves through poetry and performance; learn how to become community opinion leaders and change-makers in the community.
