Third Thursdays with Poetry Center San Jose

Third Thursdays is a monthly Poetry program in partnership with Poetry Center San José and hosted by local poet Mighty Mike McGee!

This month - POETRY CENTER SAN JOSE PRESENTS: Featured Poet: Lawrence Kelly!

Lawrence Kelly is a Afro-latino spoken word poet from the Bay Area, whose work unearths raw emotional truths and uplifts those with the same struggles with mental health and identity. He's published in West Valley's Voices Magazine, Caesura Magazine, Homies, and La Raiz Magazine. He's a speaker on the LGBT speaker's bureau and loves using his art to spread Black queer joy.

Open mic to follow.

Poetry Center San José's mission is to nurture and promote diverse literary expression in our community as a means of exploring, defining, and enriching the human experience.

For those under 18 years of age who may be attending, we recommend that a parent/legal guardian be with you during the program.
