Hosting a literary event can be amazing because you get to bring together a group of people who all appreciate the written word. Having speakers such as local or well-known authors is often a go-to when planning events at bookstores or libraries. But if you’re looking for something a little different, consider a spoken word artist. They can add a personal and moving performance to literary (or other) events. While a normal poetry or book reading can be entertaining, spoken word artists are able to connect with the audience on a deeply emotional level. The spoken word can be an intense form of art, so read on to see how these artists can make an impact on your event.
