Welcome all to the Urban Legends poetry slam. This month's feature is none other than OpenSecret.

Ikenna "OpenSecret" Onyegbula has been writing poetry for longer than he can remember; he has, however, only been a spoken word performing artist for four years. In that time, he has represented Ottawa in competition three times at national level, winning the National Slam Team title twice. He is also the reigning and inaugural Canadian Individual Slam Poetry Champion. As a member of the nationally acclaimed four member spoken word troupe, The Recipe, OpenSecret has also toured Canada extensively, in addition to opening for K-OS and Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and performing alongside Grammy winning Hip-Hop group Arrested Development.

Sign up at 6:30 p.m.
Slam starts at 7:17 p.m.

$7 at the door / free for poets signing up to slam.

$50 prize to the winning poet.

Come out and help us send this year's team to CFSW in October.
