Live Poets Society Finals
Posted July 6, 2010
LiPS Finals are happening in July. This is where the top poets (who have competed in the LiPS 2010 SLAM series) have an opportunity to share their best work, and perhaps win a spot on the National Team.
The National LiPS team will then get to compete with Spoken Word poets from across Canada - at the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word, being held in Ottawa this year (in October).
LiPS has been fortunate to be able to compete nationally for the past two years, thus far as the only rural team to compete on a national level.
Come out & show your support, and to hear the wonderful Spoken Word poetry of your local Lanark County poets.
