The Poetry Extravanganza was held on Thursday night in Hewitt Union Ballroom where a large group of students came to listen and share. The night was an opportunity for veterans and new comers of a poetry slam to share their talents in the art of creating poetry. It was a night of inspiration to see students of SUNY Oswego express themselves so openly in front of a crowd. There is an abounding amount of talent running through the creative minds of these poets that was well appreciated by the audience. The night also included a very talented guest poet who had the crowd laughing at her powerful and entertaining pieces.
