Feb. 21: WORD!CRAFT comes to Hardwick

One of the most interesting experiments Vermont rap has ever seen continues to evolve...here's the straight dope, courtesty of organizer MC Mycelium.

A traveling, monthly, participatory, spoken word/hip hop event for all ages! This takes place the third Fridays of the month.

Friday, Feb.21st at the Open Space (inside the Hardwick Inn), Hardwick, VT from 7:30 -10PM (sign-ups to participate at 7:30). This is an alcohol free event. This month’s theme is “Love”, so whatever that means to you, bring it in written and/or improvised verse. You can also just come to listen and support lyrical artists.

The schedule for the night consists of:
7:30-8:00 Sign ups and DJ Crunchee playing beats for MC’s to get warmed up
8-9 Spoken word portion of the evening
9-10-Hip Hop portion of the evening (written pieces and freestyle cyphers with word play games)

An alcohol free event! This is not your average open-mic! Contact-755-6336 or mcmycelium74@gmail.com for more details.
