Poetry Slam #Žodžiai-pa-trankos

The last poetry slam of 2021!

So much has happened this year that we won’t list it, but let’s list the things that are yet to happen – a real poetry fiesta with prizes and surprises!

There will be the expected: poetry, audience, scores and applause and there will be the poetry that already withstood the challenge of slam stage and made its way into the book “Žodžiai-pa-trankos”. Since there is more than one occasion to celebrate, we promise that everyone who gets on the stage will receive a gift!

Slemo #Žodžiai-pa-trankos hosts – Asta emerging from behind the scenes and Jovaras who might (or might not) dress as a Santa.
