HomoPoetic: A Night of Gay Poetry

Description

Lit Crawl comes to San Francisco once a year, taking over more than 50 venues in the city for an evening of poetry and prose. Think of it as a literary pub crawl. This year, GuyWriters is getting in on the fun by presenting HomoPoetic: A Night of Gay Poetry.

The event at F.S.C. Barber on Valencia will highlight established poets and emerging talent. Featuring Kevin Killian, Andrew Demcak, Brent Calderwood, Baruch Porras-Hernandez, and James J. Siegel.

Baruch Porras-Hernandez is co-host of the monthly Queer Open Mic. He has organized several arts events, including It Gets Gayer: Baruch’s Big Gay Poetry Show.
