Meet Teri Petz, Poet, Author,
​Open Mic Poetry Host, MC.
Teri Petz wears many hats and has even more interests. She was fascinated by poetry since she was a little girl, before she could read. In school she realized that writing was easy for her and she had a natural flow when she wrote. Being a nature child (woman) she likes to take long walks and explore the rivers, lakes, mountains and the Canadian Prairies. She is often inspired to write and in those moments and she says the Muse has bitten her.
 
In 2020 Teri self published her poetry book, “A Piece Of Her Heart”. The book is available on Kobo and Amazon. 
 
She participates in a small women’s poetry group led by Cat Charissage monthly. Teri organizes and is the MC of Owl Poetry, an open mic event held monthly at the Owl Acoustic Lounge in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada.

She is the co-producer of Owl Poetry, a series of Open Mic Poetry Videos for the Community Channel of Shaw Spotlight. ​
 
She is involved in Photography, Videography and creates home décor products to keep the creative juices flowing and loves to write poetry. She considers poetry to be the language of the heart.

I'm writing on behalf of the University of Lethbridge Art Gallery. One of our student interns is wanting to organize a live Poetry Slam event at the University, during Black History Month - February 2022. She is looking for local black poets to attend and perform. This would include artist fees. I have attended Owl events over the years, and I know that there are not a lot of black poets in the Lethbridge area. Do you have any contacts who may be interested? Thank you for considering this request. Sincerely: Jon Oxley, Manager, U of L Art Gallery

Dear Jon Oxley, sorry for my tardy response. I have been swamped with work. All this time we had open mic I only recall one black poet in the beginning and I never saw him again. I would be happy to asisst you with Black history month. If you create an event about it on Facebook, I would be happy to share it in my poetry circles. That is where I am the most active. Is it going to be live or virtual? Local or open to other parts of the world?
Please let me know.
We can communicate via email if we find a safe way to pass email addresses to eachother.
Yours,
Teri

Thank you Teri, for getting back to me, about the U of L Art Gallery question. The student is planning for a live event only...and will postpone the event for 6 months to a year, if necessary. If you are able to share awareness of our event (when it happens), that would be great. I will reach out to you when I know more about what is happening and when. I look forward to live poetry events again, whenver that can happen. I hope you have a great December. Jon Oxley, Manager, U of L Art Gallery

    You are in the right place if you are a beginner poet, a closet poet and are contemplating or ready to come out of the closet.
    Congrats if you are out of the closet! You can find opportunities connecting with other poets, publish your work and attend open mic poetry readings. 
    You will find the nonjudgemental support and community you need and deserve.
