Poetry at the Guadalupe Street Coffee House


Society Officer Sandy Garcia went to a poetry venue at the Guadalupe Street Coffee House earlier this week. Here are her thoughts (slightly edited):
Met there tonight for the poetry meeting that martha goes to. There was a guy playing guitar and then Eduardo who plays the drums. It was great. Eduardo Cavazos who started the group a year ago is so inspirational.
Eduardo's group meets every Tuesday night at Coffee House across from Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center from apx 6:30 p.m. - 7:30p.m. There was a writing exercise in process when I walked in followed by open mic where you are able to read while music is played in the background specifically to your words. It was a very inviting and comfortable environment. Eduardo gives pointers and advise to readers in a constructive all inspiring way. "Don't just read to the world...Read for yourself " I'm so glad that I attended.
