About Me

Loser Slam is a poetry competition featuring some of the brightest spoken word artists in the tri-state area and showing off some of the freshest new talent that performance poetry has to offer.
An exciting alternative to the local open mics, Loser Slam welcomes poets featured on HBO, on national slam teams, and even some of Monmouth County's creative talent in a challenge to see who can get the grand prize, the biggest applause and the lowest scores!
EVERY THURSDAY
Writing Workshop at 8pm
Poetry at 9pm
