Eli,
That was exactly what I was going to do. I would love it if you headed that up.

Occupoetry! I could also see if the Cantab Lounge in Central Square might be interested. Their Wed. night poetry open mic is usually pretty good, and there's a few Occupiers among their regulars. I read an Occupoem (heh heh) a few weeks ago, and folks asked me good questions afterwards. I wonder if it might be possible to host an Occupy the Cantab evening which might include Occupy-themed poetry, music, etc. I could ask how to go about that next time I'm there.

+1 on this. I may be able to ask some friends who are very active in the local slam scene if they can provide us with space...

I know that I have written at least two decent OB poems, and I am sure many other creative and thoughtful occupiers have stories, poems, and other artistic things to share.
