Selected students perform poetry to a crowd of professionals, donors, poetry enthusiasts, volunteers, coaches, community leaders, and their families. The performers are selected by judges at SCORES’ Community SLAM, held at the conclusion of the fall season, and represent schools throughout South and West Chicago communities. In addition to poetry performances, guests enjoy food and cocktails while bidding on live and silent auction packages.
