Unfortunately, we have to postpone Slam Off that was to take place on March 18. With the presumptive and confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Alberta, we have decided to postpone 2020 Slam Off. The Alberta government is ordering the cancellation of all public events involving more than 250 people as a measure to manage the outbreak. Although Story Slam is under this number, the health and safety of our attendees is our number one concern. As this was our season finale, we hope you can understand and appreciate the thought that went into this difficult decision.
We value your commitment to Edmonton Story Slam and hope that those of you who were attending will remain a valued partner in this event when it is rescheduled. We would like to thank our story tellers and sponsors for their ongoing support.
In the coming weeks we will be sending out more information regarding Story Slam and Slam Off.
Thank you to 9910 for your continued support of Story Slam and for the amazing space.
