 Door.\nJoin us for a night of poetry and music benefiting the Puerto Rican 
 artist community in San Juan! \n \nThe #PoetsforPuertoRico movement is 
 gaining national traction. Thus far, events have been launched in NYC, 
 Philadelphia, and now the Bay Area! A movement of stateside Puerto Rican 
 poets, created in response to Hurricane Maria, our goals are to amplify the 
 needs of the island and to send our community a message: Sometimes poetry 
 is about more than the poetry.\nProceeds from this event will support 
 hurricane preparedness for The Poet’s Passage – a living museum of 
 poetry, art center, café, gift store, and local craft studio for local and 
 visiting poets in Old San Juan, founded by poet, artist, and creative 
 director Lady Lee Andrews. \n\nPlus, LIVE MUSIC by CaliGente, a Bay Area 
 group blending hip-hop lyrics and island rhythms! And DJ GLO will be 
 throwing down tropical tunes! \n\nWith the recent news revealing the 
 overwhelming loss of life related to Hurricane Maria, and the neglect of 
 government and the media to accurately reflect the devastation, I know that 
 many of us are already suffering from “disaster fatigue,” and/or the 
 general exhaustion of supporting our communities to live with dignity. But 
 we will persevere, and be unrelenting in spreading the word. Thank you so 
 much for your support we hope you will join us in helping to spread the 
 word about this amazing event for this important cause. \n
