Countdown to WordSlam IV


We announced the 4th edition of the biggest poetry slam in Nigeria - WordSlam - last month and we are happy to let you know that we received considerably large amount of submission.

The School Outreach Programme that is an integral of this edition of the project has been quite interesting and educating with the Ajegunle students. We will be on the Island next week to continue the workshop.

It's barely 8 days to go. Next week Saturday is the performance day at the Goethe – Institut.

Concert Evening:
Sat, Nov 28, 3:00pm

Venue:
Goethe-Institut Nigeria
10 Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue,
opp. 1004 Flats, Victoria Island, Lagos.


Snacks and Refreshments will be offered.

Ade Bantu’s vibes – a mixture of hip-hop, reggae and afrofunk, which he calls “the sound of fufu” - will turn what started as a poetry performance into an exciting live concert in the evening. We invite you to explore the transitions between spoken and sung words and to be part of a unique rhythmic experience.

Put it
On your diary
Save it
In the reminder
On your phone…
Tell it
To a friend
Who will not
Forget it
And remind you
Of it…
Please -
don’t miss it!
It's WordSlam!
