Arts, Culture & Fun: Nuyorican Poets Cafe

July 12, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free

Join us as poets from the Nuyorican Poets Cafe perform dynamic works of spoken word and lead a writing and performance masterclass.

Over the past 40 years, the Nuyorican Poets Cafe has served as home for groundbreaking work of poetry, music, theater, and visual arts.

A multicultural and multi-arts institution, the Nuyorican Poets Cafe gives voice to a diverse group of rising poets, actors, filmmakers, and musicians who have not yet found consistent avenues for their work. The Nuyorican Poets Cafe champions the use of poetry, jazz, theater, hip-hop, and spoken word as means of social empowerment.

An open mic follows. All ages are welcome.
