SW@MP Team Slam Selection & Anthology Release

Join us on December 17th, 6-8:30 PM at the GrubStreet Writers’ Stage as we celebrate the hard work and innovative craft of the teen poets shaping the Spoken Word at Mass Poetry Program (SW@MP)!

We’re kicking off our event with a showcase celebrating the release of our teens’ poetry anthology, followed by a slam hosted by Boston Poetry Slam’s Champion of Champions, @1trukwene to determine the 6 poets who will represent Mass Poetry at our youth poetry festival, Write Here | Write Now | Speak Loud! in late March 2026.

The event is free and open to all ages, and we encourage the wider public to support these teens' work!
