Naaktgeboren

Master, father, griller and word snorer. In 2003 Jeroen Naaktgeboren (as the poet of the WoordDansers) became Dutch Poetry Slam champion. He wrote the book Poetry Slam, the Festival and is the founder of Poetry Slam Rotterdam. In 2008 he was appointed the first city poet of Rotterdam. He is the host of the illustrious PoetsClub Rotterdam and with at least as much pleasure and pride works for a cooperation association for appropriate education. 

Poetry x Poetsclub Rotterdam - Open Mic
Nowhere else in this city is poetry so intensely experienced and lived as at PoetsClub Rotterdam. Every first Wednesday of the month all the poets of the city gather in Café De Schouw for an evening full of new poems. Everyone is welcome and is invited by hosts Jeroen Naaktgeboren and Miguel Santos to read at least one new poem in the packed pub. On the festival Friday and Saturday frequent PoetsClub poets perform their poems on the foyer stage in LantarenVenster.
