Poetry Reading | La Casita: Poetry and Music Festival - Outdoors


La Casita is a citywide, intentionally inclusive festival celebrating poetry and music, grounded in the principle that New York City is best represented by presenting the artistic traditions of its most underserved communities. This year, La Casita's curators have assembled a stellar cast of poets and musicians around the themes of lineage and heritage, mining tradition and bloodline through the lens of provenance. This year's line up, hosted by 2012 Women of the World Poetry Slam Champion Eboni Hogan, includes reading from Bronx-born "lingualisualist" Edwin Torres, Latinx educator and "artivist" Jessica Diaz, poet and playwright Nancy Mercado, and cultural organizer and author Sonia Gui?ansaca. This installment of La Casita also features musical performances from the dynamic Brazilian singer-songwriter Luca Mundaca, and the enchanting New York City-based traditional Bulgarian women's choir, Yasna Voices.
