The top 5 poets will be named the 2015 Youth Speaks Seattle Slam Team and will rep Seattle at the 2014 International Brave New Voices Festival in Atlanta, this July.

The Grand Slam is Youth Speaks Seattle’s biggest annual fundraiser. In order to continue providing incredible youth-led programs such as our writing circles, open mics, poetry slams and paid internships, we need you to support us!
