We start with thoughts we think and put them on a page. Then after we speak them, we try to find a stage.
Join us on May 8th in the Black Box of the Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts Half Day Program for an open mic followed by a showcase of students who developed work through Speak Up.
Speak Up is a workshop series engaging students in the arts of Poetry and Spoken Word, in hopes of developing a community of creatives that actively practice writing, shaping and sharing their ideas of stories important to them.
