poetry + music + voice + improvisation = the text performed = spoken word
The PM Dimanche was an afternoon event that took place in 2004 on
the last Sunday of the month from September to December at the Casa del Popolo.
Monthly Workshops
These monthly workshops offered an opportunity for musicians and performers (whether
poets, writers, storytellers, etc.) to come together in a creative atmosphere and
experiment. Not so much a “show” for spectators to come and watch, but a
work-in-process for people to witness. An open, friendly environment surrounded the
artists, with the goal of providing a space to try new things in an informal, relaxed
setting. Hosted by D. Kimm.
Open Mic
In the second half of this event, a “first-come, first-served” open mic followed,
with musicians accompanying the poets.
Our aim is to invite anyone and everyone who may be interested in sharing their
words: the layperson, the emerging writer, the established published author.
Let’s hear it for risk-taking! Let’s hear it for imperfection! And three cheers for
courage, sincerity and the “work in progress!”
