HomeBase poetry is 10 years strong. Time to come home
Homecoming celebration January 20, 2019
BREAKING NEWS: The HomeBase Poetry HomeComing Show next Sunday will also be our GRAND FINALE! After 10 years of artistic, cultural, and often spiritual service to the Arizona community it is time bring this chapter of the HomeBase dynasty to an explosive close with the BIGGEST AND MOST STAR STUDDED SPOKEN WORD EVENT ARIZONA HAS EVER SEEN! I was going to make this announcement at the event itself but have chosen to let the community who we love and who love us know in advance so you all can be aware of the celebration that will take place. My sister, cousin, best friend and I started HomeBase when I was 30 years old and for a decade, my entire 30’s, we have delivered an amazing venue for poets and poetry lovers. We have been a gathering place for our beautiful melinated community and those allies who adore our spirit. We have addressed the most intense topics and laughed constantly. We have supported small businesses who often get overlooked and supported nonprofits of all kinds. We have, along with so many other leaders, help hold up arts in the valley and made it welcoming and accessible to communites who are constantly ignored. We, HomeBase Poetry crew and supportors (citizens), have done great work. I am thrilled to say our art community is thriving in a beautiful way under such leaders as Leah Marche, Wisdom Serena Richardson, Qosmic Qadence, Ken Kong Tomás J. Stanton, Robert FlipSide Daniels and so many others too numerous to name. Open mics for poets are alive and well and in great hands. Phoenix is a spoken word stronghold.
What does the future hold for us? Aside from personal endeavors, the HomeBase Foundation will be a nonprofit commited to the community is a variety ways. The sky is the limit and our love for Arizona is second to none. So lets send off Arizona’s nationally acclaimed HomeBase Poetry with the love and support that has kept it Arizona’s premier open mic spot for 10 years strong. That is a legacy no one can deny! Thank you to every last one of you who have supported us and thank you advance for supporting us this one last time. Get your tickets below and I pray you have felt the love in return. Always your loyal host, HB #homebasepoetry
