Lisa Slater, Vancouver Poetry House President.
Lisa Slater is a spoken word artist living in Vancouver, BC. Feminist, survivor, and community builder, her poems explore what it means to reclaim our bodies and identities from what broke us open and how we relearn love, sex, friendship and family in the process. Lisa was recently a finalist at the 2012 Individual World Poetry Slam and the 2013 Canadian Individual Poetry Slam. She is the 2012 Vancouver Poetry Slam Indie Champ, Erotica Slam Champ and Queer Slam Champ, as well as a five-year board member for Vancouver Poetry House and its current President. Lisa’s work has been published in The Moose & Pussy and Poetry is Dead, as well as Flicker and Spark: A Contemporary Queer Anthology of Spoken Word and Poetry.
