Verbalicious: A spit fire Spoken Word Open Mic Set to satisfy your appetite.
Hosted by spoken wordsmith LaShanta Ase, Verbalicious will be held at the Arts Council of Beaufort County on Saturdays, July 12th and 26th at 7:00 p.m.
What is Spoken Word? Poetry and Prose in Motion. “It is like watching someone perform a rhythmic monologue,” explained Ase. “But, an explanation of the noun ‘spoken word’, does it no justice. You have to experience it. It has a way of captivating an audience. The emotion and intensity that moves from speaker to listener can be quite profound.”

Beaufort Named Among Top 25 Small City Arts Destinations
American Style’s cover story of “National Treasures: Top 25 Cities for Art,” now includes Beaufort, SC as #14, the city’s first time ranking in the top 25, above Aspen, CO, Laguna Beach, CA, and Naples, FL.
The Arts Council of Beaufort County lead the charge to raise ratings for both Beaufort and Hilton Head. “Hitting #14 this year is huge, because last year Beaufort County was an also-ran, which was good to move us up to have a button for the most recent online vote. This process of moving up in national recognition is a result of our aggressive marketing campaign, and lead us to this auspicious accolade,” said J.W. Rone, Executive Director of the Arts Council of Beaufort County. “Next year, Beaufort County goes for two.” The Arts Council of Beaufort County is a not-for-profit service organization that promotes and nurtures the arts here and now with programs such as the Get Your Art Out emerging artist initiative and the Beaufort International Chalk Festival.
