About: We are proud to announce the fourth annual Slam the Islamophobia event! Join us on May 18th for poetry, prose, and art performances to empower the Muslim creatives in our community.

With a growing base of attendance every year, Slam the Islamophobia has come to be one of Emerald Project’s more popular events. Starting back in 2019, Slam was an Emerald team inspired event designed to create a safe and open space for creativity for local Muslims to express themselves through their choice of art. Slam the Islamophobia has become a cornerstone of Salt Lake City art culture and continues to unify and enrich our community. All are welcome to attend this beautiful event. See you there!
