Sakura Series

featuring poets Leilani, Jean Sebastian-Surena, Italy Ja’rae Lee, and Kitty Bailey. hosted by Kitty Bailey.

The Sakura Series is dedicated to celebrating and amplifying the voices of the diverse diaspora living in New York City, including queer folx, people of color, and mixed heritage individuals. We strive to create inclusive and safe spaces for creative expression, fostering community connections, and promoting cultural understanding. Our mission is to empower all artists to share their unique narratives and contribute to a vibrant, diverse artistic community. We host writing workshops, showcases and are kicking off our poetry slam in July! You can find us on instagram at @sakura.series
