Since moving here last November, I have noticed that while
there are a slew of venues for bands, there just aren't that
many spoken word events. So in response, I and two other
"new comers" have decided to create a monthly party of
spoken word.

It will also feature one to two unique bands from the area
who are also new to Portland.

BTW, your website is a great resource. Below is information
on the event.

Spoken Word Wanted:
We are organizing a party in SE Portland on August 20th and
are looking for folks who would like to share their
"Relocating to Portland" stories with an audience. Pieces
should be no longer than 5 minutes in length. Deadline to
submit to the event is Aug 1st.
