Poet-Linc is a poetry slam contest that celebrates talented young artists from the five boroughs performing their original poetry to the theme “I have a voice.” For five Wednesdays, the Atrium will be jam-packed with readings by professional guest poets and three rounds of competitions that will be judged by appointed members of the audience and three official judges. All of this will lead to an exhilarating Grand Slam performance at the Target® Free Thursday on December 13 to determine the first ever Lincoln Center Poet-Linc Grand Slam Champion.

Seating is available on a first-come, first served basis.

All events take place at the David Rubenstein Atrium, across the street from Lincoln Center, Broadway between 62nd and 63rd Streets

Poet-Linc is made possible by public support by The Honorable Gale A. Brewer, New York City Council.
