Come gather and hear decolonized verses, spanglish poesia, Latine spokenword, Pocho poems and neighborhood chisme at Speaking Axolotl, the Bay Area’s long running monthly Latine Reading series. 10 slot open mic goes up a las 6:50PM. Open mic poets have 7 minutes to read.

This month’s feature is Lucía Arrocha.

Lucía Arrocha.is an artist hailing from Buenos Aires and living in San Francisco. Her multicultural background has fostered in her a proclivity for language, as well as a profound fascination for different ways of living and emoting. Poetry was her first love and she has been writing for over two decades, but she has also found her voice through various artistic endeavors such as filmmaking and DJing under the moniker Iris Umbra.

NOTA; Speaking Axolotl is a BIPOC reading series which means black and brown poets ONLY on the mic. Whyte folks are more than welcome to listen and enjoy but their presence is not requiered.
