Some very famous philosophers claim that humanity inhabits earth for one purpose and that is to create. Poetry and spoken work have been the cornerstone of the creative process in the Capital District and Nitty Gritty Poetry Slam (NGPS) continues to inspire and entertain both audiences and artists, they are growing beyond their bi-monthly format with their latest event.

Crevices of Creation is the first of the NGPS Create & Chat series: an intimate, two-part workshop and performance event designed for new and seasoned poets . This woman-driven event will guide your collaborative creations during a workshop/skillshare followed by a RapGenius-inspired poetry showcase allowing the audience to have an intimate conversation with some of the area’s finest women poets about their process and the meaning of their work beyond the surface. Amazing local visual artists will be featured at the event in addition to old favorites and newer poets.

The performances will be followed by a mixer for a nightlife experience fit for a Friday.
The event will be held at the incredible and women-owned Sunhee's Farm & Kitchen (95-97 Ferry St., Troy). Enjoy a traditional Korean meal, drinks or both.
