Description

On an evening the Phoenix Hotel hosted Poolside Poets.

Guests came dressed in their best "Origins"

Think: embroidered shawls and family heirlooms, patterned kurtas and woven blankets, pidgin plaids and hand-stitched aprons, beaded necklaces with old stories, patched denim with ancestral prints, ceremonial scarves over streetwear, bold cultural prints with modern silhouettes, expressive makeup and symbolic pins — mix & match: textiles, heirlooms, prints, embroidery, jewelry, whatever reminded you of home

Featured Poets: Aiya Madarang, Denise Maisel, Rhea Joseph, Lina Begonia, Thomas Cavazos, Flex Dalit, Yevgeniya Shtalenkova, Giovanna Lomanto

Featured Musician: Flying Shoe
