Presented by California Poets In the Schools at Matheson Performing Arts Center

At 4pm, on Tuesday, May 9th at the Matheson Performing Arts Center at MHS, high school poets from Ukiah, Point Arena, Fort Bragg, and Mendocino will compete to become the Mendocino Poetry Out Loud champion. And immediately following, at approximately 4:30pm, teams from Point Arena, Fort Bragg, Ukiah, Willits, Andersen Valley and Mendocino will slam their original poetry at the 16th annual MCOE/CPITS Coast High School Poetry Slam. The event will be judged by four Mendocino County poets, with audience response influencing their decision. Join us in support of youth expression.
