Victoria Poetry Project

cultivating & celebrating spoken word art…
the victoria poetry project has been a registered non-profit society since 2015 and has existed as a community since 2005. we are grateful to live, work and play on the traditional and unceded territories of the lək̓ʷəŋən speaking peoples; the Esquimalt, Songhees, and W̱‘SÁNEĆ peoples. The foundation of the victoria poetry project society, Tongues of Fire (ToF) is the longest-running poetry open mic in the traditional territories of lək̓ʷəŋən speaking peoples today. Usually occurring every 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month at the Caffè Fantastico (Quadra Village Roastery), every ToF consists of an open mic before our featured poet.
