Inkspired,

About the event

Inkspired is the largest poetry-based production on the east coast and one of the largest in the country! On Feb 25th, 2023, Inkspired Kings Edition will take place at the Raleigh Convention Center. Inkspired is sponsored in part by WUNC-NPR and The Wright Village.
Inkspired is anchored in poetry but is hardly just that. Instead, Inkspired merges networking, fashion, live music, and visual arts to create an unforgettable night out. s.P. The Writer is the executive producer and sole writer for this event, where talented spoken word artists and actors from across the nation are contracted to bring s.P.'s work to life. A live band accompanies musical guests, and KrystalDaMuse is a show all on her own, displaying her hosting prowess. When most people think of poetry, they visualize an open mic in a bar on a Wednesday night, but Inkspired is limos, high fashion, interviews, and much more that create a scene unlike any other in the realm of the arts. Because of its experience, the 5th installment of Inkspired saw 500 people in attendance. The next iteration, taking place on Feb 25th, 2023, will be the next massive step in making Inkspired a premiere red carpet event across the nation. 

Why should you sponsor?

Sponsoring Inkspired comes with a plethora of benefits. Inkspired is a fast-growing event in a position to pair supporting partners with potential customers, and it can do so from various marketing angles depending on the needs of its partner. Inkspired attendees are innately open-minded, strictly based on poetry being the foundational draw for the production. With tickets typically between $50 and $300, our attendees are willing to open their bank accounts when they recognize the value. A partner will benefit during the promotional period through logo and company awareness via digital and physical flyers, social media, and the Inkspired networking mixer. The day of the show offers the opportunity to build rapport with attendees in person and also allows a unique opportunity to be seamlessly integrated into the show because s.P. can write a sponsor directly into a poem; for a hyper-personalized touch. As a creative endeavor, there are many evident and unique ways to help a sponsor see favorable KPIs. Let's have a conversation about what you need. 

Curtis Hill Jr.

Hi! My name is Curtis L. Hill Jr., aka s.P. The Writer, and I am the writer/executive producer of Inkspired. In 2018 I took what I thought was a small idea and put it into motion. With 5 Inkspired productions under my belt, the largest being 500 people, I am primed to take this one-of-a-kind event to the next level. Poetry isn't usually the medium you would think of to have red-carpet flair coupled with marketing opportunities, but Inkspired is precisely that. Alongside KrystalDaMuse (Co-Producer & Host), I have created a production full of artistic expression that creates money-making opportunities for artists and businesses. We have caught the eyes of many and gained the support of corporate enterprises such as WUNC-NPR while partnering with minority/woman-owned The Wright Village, to name a couple. Inkspired has built a reputation of high-level entertainment and opportunity that I am excited to share with you! My concept, though appearing typical, has an array of attractive parts to attendees and potential sponsors. Inkspired has been growing on an upward trajectory since day one, and I look forward to discussing space for your business to reap from its future success.
