TOMORROW is Mic Drop. 🎤✨
Last Sunday energy.
Santa Cruz voices.
A brave room. Real stories. Held with intention.
This isn’t just an open mic —
it’s a space where voices are witnessed, not rushed.
Where truth lands and stays a minute.
✨ Featured Poet: Shizue Seigel
Japanese American writer, artist, and community organizer whose work carries history, resistance, and tenderness in the same breath.
