The Chill List – July 21
The Ill List is one of our favorite events each year. Not only do we get an amazing line up of national caliber slam poets, the Ill List team makes an amazing sponsor commercial. This year, they are doing something new called the Chill List. The Chill List will feature four of the best poetry slam *teams* in the country competing for a $2000 prize. Poetry slam teams are comprised of the top-ranked poets in a particular city who have competed and won their respective slams. As a team, poets choose to compete in pairs or as a full ensemble of up to five voices through four rounds of performance poetry. So imagine what you’ve seen at the ILL LIST and multiply that by 2, 3, 4 or 5 poets on stage performing at once! Do not miss this. It is going to be a blast and it will hold you over until the Ill List comes back in December. ModestoView and the Chris Murphy Family are a proud sponsors of this event.
July 21 – 7 pm
