Spoken word performances share literary talent with community The Daily Astorian The Poetry Club of Clat- sop Community College is KROGLQJ LWV ¿UVW DQQXDO 6SR- ken Word event. Students, col- lege employees, and commu- nity members are all invited to perform and/or attend a per- formance of acoustic music, poems, short stories, or any other type of spoken word per- formance at 3 p.m. Thursday in the CCC Library Lounge. The Poetry Club, a new club at CCC this year, has been work- ing hard to promote and orga- nize the logistics for the event while writing and revising their own poems with the intention of performing at the event. Alec Chapa, the club’s stu- dent president, says he likes Poetry Club because it’s so dif- ferent from the other collegiate writing he does that is much more analytical. “It’s fun to say something and not worry about it being grammatically correct. And it’s not just saying some- thing; it’s creating something.” While the club may be small, the group is dedicated and meet weekly to share their poetry and discuss ways to improve and change poems to make them their best for performance. “Our intent is to showcase the liter- ary and musical talents of CCC students and community mem- bers,” Alison Ruch, faculty adviser for the club, said. “We want to demonstrate that CCC is a venue in which students my express their ideas and emotions through art.” Participate can sign up between 2:45 and 3:00 p.m. before the performances start. Readings or performances are OLPLWHGWR¿YHPLQXWHVSHUSHU- son.
