We are the first poetry salon in Utah, a collective of BIPOC & LGBT Poets and Artists welcome you into their proverbial living room for a unique experience of live Poetry, Music, Art, and Caribbean Cuisine. Our performance is followed by an Open Mic

Did You Know?
Starting in 2023, RELAXATION THROUGH VERSE Poetry Salon will be held quarterly in April, August, and December during a weekend long retreat with Poet & Chef, Michaëlle, The Caribbean Nightingale. The Retreat will include Poetry, African Drum, and Music Workshops that last 30-45 minutes each. Workshops are taught exclusively by our Relaxation Through Verse cast. In the past, The Caribbean Nightingale has hosted our Poetry Salon at various quaint artistic venue in Salt Lake City that were either, Black-owned, woman-owned, or a community nonprofit.
