Mr. Kite’s Corner

“Moving forward” after a fire at the Guadalupe Arts Center wiped out their offices and the documentary they had been working on for a year, the Austin Poetry Slam team needs your help. All you have to do is show up Saturday at Ruta Maya to watch Shane Bartell, the Personals, Go Nova, Jerm Pollett, and a head-to-head haiku slam, and pitch in for a most worthy cause. Further benefits are scheduled for March 26 at Ego’s and April 19 at La Zona Rosa.
