Open Mic: The Witchdoctors and Assassins Series
Elijah Kuan Wong
Had your fill of reading the usual classics for your AP exam literature and college English classes? Come to our open mic series for a little change of scenery. Curated by Nuyorican semifinalist Elijah Kuan Wong, Witchdoctors offers you a safe space and nurturing environment. Come bring your own work or just sit back and listen to an eclectic group of Asian American artists present poetry, prose, film, theatre, and multimedia textsÑin other words, works that’ve probably not yet found their way into your bluebooks or your hearts.
