The Moon Readings
We’re in collaboration once again with The Reading Series, an all-ages poetry open mic that aims to provide a safe space for people of all identities to share. Reading in the title references astrology, tarot, and other means of divinity; inviting spirit and ancestors to empower those who step to the mic. THE MOON READINGS, named after the respective Full Moon of each month, will be the series’ sixth season.

Featured Poet:
Soojung is a queer, diasporic Korean singer-songwriter and poet, whose work explores family mythology, mourning, and memory.
