I am looking forward to sharing space, and reading poetry in my hometown, I was born and raised in South East LA, and am so grateful to share poetry for this event along side two poets I greatly admire, Vickie Vertiz, and Xitlalic Guijosa Osuna.

Overview

Remembering Our Ancestors Through Art and Words

Join us for a night of food, local vendors, and live performances hosted by Author and Poet, Solany Lara.

Irresistible Resistance in SELA is a pop-up series partnering with small businesses and local artists who use their art as a form of resistance to recent ICE enforcement actions in Southeast LA, creating paid opportunities for artists and renewed foot traffic for participating businesses.

This program is presented by the SELA Arts Foundation and Latinas Art Foundation and supported by the City of Maywood, Port of Long Beach and Eastside Arts Initiative.
