"Blurred Realities" Poetry Slam
Poets from MSU and the greater Lansing community will write and perform original work exploring changing notions of authenticity and mis/dis/information in an era shaped by AI and digital surrogates. Competing for three cash prizes, performers will be scored by community judges selected at random from the audience, making this milestone 10th installation of the poetry slam as interactive as it is thought-provoking.
This special edition of the poetry slam will be hosted by acclaimed poet, playwright, and cultural leader Mahogany L. Browne alongside Natasha T. Miller, the MSU Museum’s Community Engagement Manager and a three-time top-five finalist at the Women of the World Poetry Slam, in partnership with the RCAH Center for Poetry. In addition to co-hosting the evening, Browne will offer a featured reading of her own work.
Refreshments will be provided.
This performance is part of the programming series for the Blurred Realities exhibition, which explores mis/dis/information and how technology shapes our perceptions of authenticity. Blurred Realities is on view at the MSU Museum January - July 2026. Tickets are free!
