Pleasant Groove

Poetry Feasts and Dream Zines

Recent Work:

Pleasant Groove: 

A poetry open mic hosted by Priscilla Rice, Tamitha and Chris Curiel, with Leo Diaz running lights and sound. We open the evening with music and a feature poet. Then we open the mic to the Pleasant Grive community. We share words, snacks, spirits and sounds in the black box theatre of the Pleasant Grove Library from 6:00-8:00 usually, on the second Saturday of the month.
