🎤 The 8th Annual Gary Wideman Reading Fest is almost here — and Denver, you don’t want to miss this.
On Saturday, May 16 at 11AM, we’re bringing together some of Colorado’s most powerful BIPOC storytellers, poets, singers, playwrights, and novelists for a night that’s all about art, culture, and community impact.
This year keeps the same high‑energy, intimate format that made last year unforgettable — live performances, community vendors, networking, and a space that truly honors creative voices.
🎟 Tickets:
• Advanced Tickets: $15 (available until May 16)
• General Admission: $20
• Optional donations go 100% to the mission through Zeffy’s fee‑free platform
📍 1560 Teller St, Lakewood, CO
