Black & Creative : Poetry Open Mic Night

An evening of spoken word, poetry and live music, centring connection, community, Black joy, creativity, cultural expression & radical love as a form of healing and repair. Rooted Spaces is a creative events community hosted by 'Radically Rooted', curating meaningful, joyful, and intentional spaces & events that centre Black & brown cultural expression, creativity, music, art and poetry in Bristol & the South West. Weaving creativity, joy, culture, faith, and rest into a space that nurtures talent, builds visibility & creates opportunity. More than events, this is about curating spaces for expression, without performance, without expectation, grounded in joy, care and intimacy. Their Open Mic & Live Music nights are an invitation into courage, comfort, permission, community & visibility. A space to share poetry, music & creativity freely. All are welcome. If you would like to read or perform on the night, please choose the appropriate ticket option in the event ticket link. There will also be a sign up sheet on the night from 6:45 PM.
