About Me

Cliterati is a venerable Atlanta institution, a feminist open mic run by Karen G, Theresa Davis, Malika and an assortment of other excellent poets and spoken word artists. We began at The Tower II in October 2000, moved to The Spot, next door in 2006 (we dubbed it the G spot). Since the Tower II burned down, Cliterati is now on the move.

CLITERATI IS NOW ON 3rd THURSDAYS at our natural home, the place that started it all CHARIS BOOKS & MORE in the heart of Little 5 Points, Atlanta.

Having featured such luminaries as Sini Anderson, Meliza Banales, Theresa Davis, Daphne Gottlieb, Cheryl B.,Eileen Myles, Ami Mattison, Natalie Illum, Thea Hillman, AmyeffinWeaverman, Dennis Florine, Blair,Lynee Breedlove, Johnny Rocket, Buddy Wakefield, Michelle Sewell, The Original Woman, and a host of others, Cliterati celebrated is heading for a decade in 2010.
