2016 Capturing Fire Queer Cookie Slam

The Queer Cookie Slam is a competitive performance poetry series invented from Regie Cabico and Tyler French's love of baking and poetry. The event raises funds for Capturing Fire with sales of cookies and deserts specially prepared by Tyler French. Past winners of Queer Cookie include Venus Selenite, Sarah D. Lawson & Angelique Palmer . Tonight the Queer Cookie Slam will have our 2016 poets competing in 1 round of 2 minute pioems to determine order for the Capturing Fire Semi Finals on June 4, 2016 at 6pm. Capturing Fire is a festival of queer spoken word poetry where poets gather during a 3 day event that includes readings, panels and poetry slams. Traditionally held in Washington, DC the weekend before Capital Pride, it is the only festival to promote Queer poets throughout North America and The United Kingdom. $10 Admission https://www.facebook.com/events/1021646681243473/
