Next HomeWord Event - November 24

Mars Hill Cafe, HomeWord Heat of 2006 State Library Poetry Slam

OneWord will become HomeWord for one night only in November, at the Parramatta heat of the NSW State Library's 2nd annual Poetry Slam. Contestants will be given just two minutes to wax lyrical on a topic of their choice at the slam on
Friday, November 24, at 8.30pm (for a 9pm start).



As usual, no music or props are allowed. NWG Inc's Vice-President Nathan Judd will emcee the heat (one of three city heats of the State Library Slam), with special guest Citizen Tom. Two winners from the heat will progress to the final at the State Library in early December, where they will go in the running for $1000 in prizes. In an exciting twist, city contestants will also go up against contestants from the country in 2006.
Venue: Mars Hill Cafe ("where the thinkers drink") 331 Church St Parramatta (opposite Brand Smart)
