Dane Kuttler is a regular at the Hampshire Slam Collective, and represented them
at the first-ever Women of the World Poetry Slam in Detroit, MI. Her poetry has
a lyrical, narrative style that explores themes of Jewish and queer identities,
with a lot of love poems to her grandparents. She is currently on the road,
looking for a new home. She has featured in coffee shops, living rooms, back
porches and the occasional auditorium, but her favorite venue has always been
her first - a dilapidated tree house with sixteen stuffed animals for an
audience.
Bring your friends. Bring your loved ones. Bring your "How I Spent My Summer
Vacation" essays.
See you there!
