February 13, 2025 | Drunken Monkey Coffee Bar
In collaboration with Conscious Art for Change & Renfilmdit

On the eve of Valentine’s Day, we gathered for a soul filled evening of vulnerability, verse, and vibrant connection at our Valentine’s Poetry Open Mic Night. Held at the ever-cozy Drunken Monkey Coffee Bar, the night centered love in all its forms: romantic, platonic, self, and community.

A major highlight of the evening was a powerful performance by our featured poet, The Smokin Poet, whose delivery moved the room with bold truth, emotional depth, and lyrical fire. Their words lit up the mic and reminded us just how culurally healing and revolutionary poetry can be.
