Venues I've visited.
Some are *Family Friendly. Most are +Profanity Free! Some have a cover charge. Others are free!
TAKE NOTE: Since some venues focus on Spoken Word
& Hip Hop, Poets are not always received enthusiastically. Some venues cater mostly to a young crowd. Do some
homework. Ask questions. It's no fun spending money if you don't have a good time!
