Description: Join us for a one-of-a-kind evening where real dads and father figures take the mic to share true, personal stories about the joys, struggles, surprises, and lessons of fatherhood. From heartwarming to hilarious, raw to reflective, each 5-minute story offers a glimpse into the lived experiences that shape the men who’ve shaped us.
Inspired by The Moth storyslam format, Dad Slam is a judged storytelling competition where audience members help crown the night’s winner—who will receive a cash prize and a slot in our upcoming Grand Slam finale.
Whether you’re telling a story or cheering from the crowd, this event promises connection, laughter, and maybe even a few tears. Come celebrate the many voices of fatherhood in a night that honors storytelling, community, and the impact of dads everywhere.
Presented in partnership with the Mending the Gap Responsible Fatherhood Program.
