Utah High School Poetry Slam State Championship–Fri. April 20, 2018 at Copper Hills HS

This year’s event, which will be part of the 4th Annual Grizzly Invitational, the Utah High School Poetry Slam State Championship, will feature writing workshops from well-known poets and spoken-word artists Ashlee Haze, Good Ghost Bill, and Olivia Gatwood. These exceptional writers have toured both the country and the world sharing their art as poets and educators.

During the evening, starting at 5 p.m., Copper Hills Slam will be hosting the 4th Annual Grizzly Invitational, a multi-school poetry slam competition. Hosted by local poet Debbie Higham Wood, and judged by both the Rock Canyon Poets & Wasatch Wordsmiths, the competition will feature eight schools, four rounds of performance poetry, and 32 talented, teen poets battling for the title of Grizzly Slam Champions. The slam event will also include short features in between rounds by our visiting poets.

This event is sponsored by Copper Hills High School, Utah Humanities, Hampton Inn, Rock Canyon Poets, and Wasatch Wordsmiths.
