We cordially invite you to join us in celebrating our Queer collective humanity in community at FEAST ON WORDS: QUEER EXPRESSION at Asempe Kitchen.

Here at Asempe Kitchen, where Asempe means Curiosity, we believe in finding ways to embrace the various identities we all walk in/with. Be curious about yourself and others this Pride month through creative expression!

Join us at Asempe Kitchen on any Monday in June—the 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, or 30th—from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. You are welcome to create your work during the event in whatever form it takes —poetry, journaling, an essay, prose, a letter, or a list. Alternatively, please feel free to bring a piece you have already completed to share with the community.

Should you prefer not to create your own work, we would also be delighted to have you join us to hear others share their writing.

We eagerly anticipate celebrating Pride with you.

*Tea will be provided. Feel free to bring snacks to share. On the last Monday, June 30th, we anticipate a grand cumulative event coupled with a pay-what-you-can/pay-it-forward community dinner sponsored by local community members and Asempe Kitchen.
Led by Chef Kuukua Yomekpe, and wife, Sherron Brown (OAR/CIU) with guest appearances from other community artists.
