    Hey I would love to volunteer ! As I myself am a aspiring poet , in my head and i said “god damn i am a poet , but in my head”.

    thanks and hope to hear from you soon.

We Need Volunteers…LOTS of Volunteers

Get Involved

So now that the Vancouver Poetry Slam is running every Monday night, we have opportunities for community members like YOU to help out. Most nights we need:

2 Door People to take admissions, stamp hands and greet audience members as they arrive
1 Timekeeper to hold the stopwatch and time the poets’ performances
1 Scorekeeper to record and tally the scores throughout the evening and help announce the winners

We need volunteers every Monday night. The benefits are that you get in for free, you have a guaranteed seat and we will be wonderfully grateful for your help. If you need a letter of reference for community service work for school or otherwise, we will be happy to provide that.

If you would like to help, please email me via the Directors’ page or at our Poetry House email: vanpohouse@yahoo.ca

Thanks for thinking about this!

Sue McIntyre
Poetry House President and Volunteer Coordinator
