Today’s young Bronx poets are making noise in new ways, breaking new ground on rhythm and rhyme, taboo themes, and personal identity. Three Rooms Press has hand-picked leading poets from the new wave of Bronx artists for a rare collective Manhattan appearance. Poets include Rebecca Perez, Melodic, Joel Gonzalez, and Leah Ana Rodriguez. The event will also feature an open poetry mic, hosted by Peter Carlaftes and Kat Georges.
Cornelia Street Cafe is at 29 Cornelia Street (between W. 4th St. and Bleecker). Doors open 5:45 pm, show starts at 6 pm. Arrive early for best seating. Admission $10, includes a free drink.
