Poetry Ember

Beneath the cloak of night the EMBER sessions await. Here, local honored poets guide your journey. Each session is led by a different Poet, sharing their secrets and leading you through poetic exercises. *"LIT" and "ember" are scheduled every two weeks on alternating Tuesdays. This Poetry Ember we have Dex Neily guiding us through their writing exercise. Dex Neily has represented Victoria nationally and internationally at seven spoken word festivals, and was a finalist at both the 2021 and 2022 Canadian Individual Poetry Slam. Learn more about Dex below. Come and write your poetry at "ember" and share your poetry at "LIT".
