How do i Become A Fire YOUth?

Good question! We're open and looking for teens who are seeking a space to express themselves. Youth can register through an intake form to the left, or on paper if they come to Fire. Youth are invited to any of our open programming without registration, like workshops and open mics. If a youth wants to register for a particular program, like our Tell Our Story Summer program, we appreciate them doing so in advance. Check out the calendar below for the most up to date information.

WORKSHOPSIf you're a young person age 13-21, join us for a drop-in workshop at any workshop listed above. These workshops do not require pre-registration and are an intimate introduction for new youth, and continual ritual for returning youth.
KZOO YOUTH POETRY SLAmThe slam is one of our seasonal programs that requires a pre-registration. In essence, imagine adding a competitive component to an Open Mic, and competing to be one of the top 10 youth in the county. Imagine training with a coach and team to develop your individual and team pieces. Then imagine going to Detroit, Michigan for the annual Louder than a Bomb festival. It's a program that's accessible for 13-19 year olds. Stay tuned for the 2019-2020 season.

OPEN MICSWe host the longest running poetry open mic in the state. Every first Friday of the month. Doors open at 6pm, with a firm start start at 6:30pm. Free & open to public. Parents, families, and artists welcome!
