That’s a wrap on Keen’s Mixtape Series! Mona Mansour brought together a magnificent group of artists who filled Judson Memorial Church with so much talent and originality.

Mona’s Mixtape was a lot like her: literary, thought-provoking, generous, honest, deep, loving, absurd, wacky, bold, and of course: there was a Joni Mitchell song.

Thank you to everyone who came out on a rainy Wednesday to be part of this epic night.
