Poets and writers will soon compete for prizes at a literary and musical gathering on the bayou.
Lei’s Cafe on the Bayou hosts a poetry night on Saturday, October 25. The event opens with music by Joaquin Gustav at 4:00 PM SLT. Mr. Gustav is a talented guitarist, composer, and Avi Choice Award winner from Argentina. His diverse playlist includes jazz, tango, milonga, candomblé, and something called “rock music.”
Starting at 5:00 PM, Taloosters and friends present their favorite poems and short stories. Prizes will be awarded for the top two original works.
To register to perform a reading, send a note to Miss Lei Pari by October 23. Include your name, poem or short story title, the name of person who wrote it (you or the original author), and the text of the poem or short story.
