Poetry In Motion, a thrilling Monthly spoken word competition where words come alive and energy fills the room. Each month, six incredible poets take the stage, delivering powerful 10-minute performances that will move, inspire, and entertain.
Judged on Crowd Engagement, Word Play, and Energy, these poets aren’t just competing—they’re putting on a show! Winners from each round advance to the Finals in June, where one will claim the Poetry In Motion crown and amazing prizes
But that’s not all—every performance will be filmed for The Konnected’s Poetry In Motion TV Show, so you’ll witness rising stars in the making!

For Poetry: A Monthly Dose of Expression
Where the mic is open, the games are wild, and the vibes are unforgettable.
Every month, we gather to celebrate the healing power of poetry and art in all its forms—through live performances, poetic games, artist interviews, and a high-energy open mic.
What to Expect:
Open Mic Sign-Up: Come early, grab a spot, and share your truth.
Poetic Games: Interactive wordplay challenges that test your creativity and get the crowd involved.
Live Artist Interviews: Get to know the featured artists beyond the mic—who they are, why they write, and what fuels their fire.
IV Poetry is more than a show. It’s a movement. A moment. A memory. Don’t miss it.
