Description

American Indians in Texas at the Spanish Colonial Missions is proud to present “Estilo Trino” A Commemorative Reading in the Spirit of Trinidad Sanchez Jr., a free poetry event to be held in recognition and commemoration of a true poetic titan, Trinidad Sanchez Jr., who passed away July 30, 2006. Trino had a profound effect on all he met, both young and old, with a voice that spoke across generations, racial and cultural lines and economic divides. The poet/warrior Trino is known for such works as Why Am I So Brown? and Let Us Stop The Madness while his more humorous works could bring the house down in uproarious laughter. This event will feature Andrea Greimel, Ramon Vasquez and Santiago Garcia, three poets familiar with Trino and his work plus an open-mic segment for those interested in sharing in the spirit of Trino. This event is co-sponsored by Writers Blk., the City of San Antonio Office of Cultural Affairs and Bihl Haus Arts. September 25, 2009 @ Bihl Haus Arts 2803 Fredericksburg Rd, SA TX. Reading from 7pm – 9pm. Reception at 6:30pm.
