One City One Pride: Pride Poets

  • Date: June 19, 2020 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM  
  • Location: Online at https://pride.weho.org/pride-poets

Last year, Pride Poets popped up with typewriters around West Hollywood throughout the City of West Hollywood’s One City One Pride LGBTQ Arts Festival (www.weho.org/pride) crafting over 600 new poems for passersby commemorating their personal LGBTQ+ histories. This year Pride Poets has moved online.

 Pride Poets are hosting a community Open Mic every Friday night 6-8pm throughout Pride, with features by LGBTQ+ historians and live writing by the Pride Poets. You can sign up to read or watch here: bit.ly/PrideMicSignUp

Also, the public is invited to have a poem written, either for themselves or a loved one, based on whatever they choose share with the poet. These poems, for the community, are gifted back to the community - sent to the people who commissioned them, etched in chalk on the streets of West Hollywood, and posted online for you. The form to request a custom poem is www.bit.ly/yourpridepoem.
