Spoken Word: Voice, Performance & Poetics (July 10, 5PM-7PM)

Spoken word transforms poetry into a shared, embodied experience. In this introductory workshop, Leandro Reyes (The Basyang Kid) explores how poems move from page to performance, examining voice, cadence, line breaks, and audience reception through poetics and building on the Filipino spoken word tradition. Open to beginners and experienced writers alike, this class offers a welcoming space for creative expression, community-building, and discovering new ways to perform your work.
