Poets Corner

¡OYE! Group’s Poet’s Corner FREE writing program for teens returns this March!

Join us every third Thursday of each month for an inspiring night of words, creativity, and community at ¡OYE! Group’s Multipurpose Space, 214 Starr St. Brooklyn, Unit 2-2.

This series of workshops is curated by ¡OYE! Group’s inaugural Poet-in-Residence, Roya Marsh.

Each workshop will be led by a guest poet and followed by an open mic.

Next up: Thomas Fucaloro!

Date: June 18, 2026 from 7 pm - 9 pm

Them: Come join a poetic scavenger hunt. We will be exploring joy through grief as we create a line bank through 7 crafted prompts.

Come kick it, write boldly, and leave energized by fresh ideas from fellow storytellers.

Poet’s Corner is curated by the inaugural Poet in Residence, Roya Marsh.

Described by GLAAD as “a commanding voice in contemporary poetry”, Bronx native Roya Marsh is a multi-award-winning poet, performer, educator, and activist who works feverishly toward Queer liberation and dismantling white supremacy. Her widely featured work constantly focuses on uplifting the voices of marginalized communities and is therefore firmly aligned with ¡OYE! Group’s continuing mission. We look forward to supporting and collaborating with her in the upcoming year.
