Spoken Word / Poetry

BPoetic

Intersection Artist

Bridgette Alston is a spoken word artist and poet who uses storytelling as a vessel for healing, connection, and truth. 

Though she's only been performing poetry for just one year, she has already made a powerful impact through my work—from selling out her own show in 2025 to receiving a poetry award from a prestigious hospital system in Charlotte, North Carolina. She was also nominated for the Poetry In Motion award for 2025 Queen City Awards. 

Her poetry explores themes of resilience, self-discovery, and community, drawing from lived experience and transforming vulnerability into strength. She approaches her craft with deep intention, creating performances that not only tell her story but invite others to see themselves within it.
