On October 12th 2017, I had the joy to read with many great voices including chingona author Ana Castillo in a Welcome to NYC style party at Starr Bar.
About the show:
En el Día de la Raza, La Liga Zine is hosting a gathering to welcome Chicana novelist-poet Ana Castillo to her new home in New York! On this day, Ana Castillo was crowned a curandera in Mexico by a great Tlaxcaltec medicine man 20 years ago.
Featuring:
- Nancy Mercado
- Ayendy Bonifacio
- Sergio Troncoso
- Ana Castillo
- Stephanie Orentas
- Mari Santa Cruz
- Yeiry Guevara
- Sayuri Gomez
Many thanks to everyone who came out and welcomed Ana with open arms. A few snaps of the event are below.
