BEST OPEN-MIKE NIGHT

Spoken Word with No Apology
Spoken Word with No Apology
African Heritage Cultural Arts Center
6161 NW 22nd Avenue
Northwest Miami-Dade
305-638-6771
On Saturday nights the microphone stands open until the last poet drops. And what the street wordsmiths throw down is nothing short of a verbal pipe bomb -- homemade and packed with angst, sexual longing, and political rage. Billed as a night of poetry for the strong and conscious soul, this poetry jam often goes until 5:00 a.m., the evening suffused with the sweet smell of incense, vegetarian soul food, and a bazaar of scented oils and artwork for sale. Musicians take the stage between poets, and often improvise in the background during a reading. If you are burning with a message, this would be the place to release it to the universe.
