About Me

The Delawhere Open Mic and Slam is made up of a collective of poets in the Delaware and greater Philadelphia area dedicated to having an amazing, amusing and downright rockin' show.

We are a nationally certified poetry slam through Poetry Slam, Inc.
A place to listen, a place to speak, a place to be heard, and a place to eat, drink and merry it the fuck up. Come out and see the show; compete in the slam; use the mic (for sharing your work, please!). Every Wednesday at the Crimson Moon Tavern on the corner of 6th and Union in downtown Wilmington. Parking is free in the Crimson Moon's lot!

More details can be found on our website at www.delawhere.org , including contact information, booking information, directions and all that other jazz.

We're an over 21 venue, so bring your "I'm Over 21" ID.
