Little London Café - unit 110

Hosted and Curated by Paul Edward Costa - Mississauga Poet Laureate, the purpose of OUTER HAVEN Poetry Night #2 is to cultivate an independent community of poetry and spoken word in an intimate, boutique setting. Three local spoken word artists, chosen for their skill and proficiency (both in performance and publishing) will each perform a 15 minute set. There will also be six open mic spots available (first come, first serve-3 minutes each) and features for future editions may be chosen from previous open mic performers who have demonstrated their abilities.

The features for the second edition on Friday, January 17th from 7-9pm, will be:

1-Meriam Z

2-Beth Lexah

3-Daniel Salij

The event will be PWYC at the door ($5.00 recommended), with the proceeds to be split evenly among the three features. The featured artists may also have books/merch available for sale on-site.

To further focus this event on the literary arts, there will be a spotlight during each edition where the host will highlight and promote a book that's been published by a currently active Canadian writer. The host will also highlight several periodicals accepting submissions from writers looking to publish.
