Poetry Night - Celebrating Comunidad - Virtual

‘Celebrando Comunidad’: celebrating Latinx Heritage Month

Let us celebrate the spirit of comunidad during Latinx Heritage Month as we gather for a night of poetry that celebrates voices of those who uplift and honor culture & heritage within the community, creating a space of connection and belonging. This month, Belmont Poetry Night invites you to a poetry reading in the theme of ‘Celebrando Comunidad’.

Featuring performing artist & poet, Roy Conboy. Hosted by Belmont Poet Laureate, Monica Korde.

Roy Conboy is a Latino/Irish/Indigenous poet, playwright and teacher whose writing gives voice to native song, to the voiceless, to immigrant generations. His poetry has been seen in Green Hills Literary Lantern, Orphic Lute, Third Estate’s Quaranzine, Freshwater Literary Journal, New American Writing, and featured on Latinx Lit Magazine’s podcast.

This is a virtual event on Zoom. Reading will be followed by Open Mic. Share a poem of your own or by a favorite poet. Or just pour a cup of tea and listen in. We welcome friends in poetry from around the world, so please share!

To participate and read for Open Mic, email us before September 17.
