Join us on Monday, March 30 for an evening of spoken word, poetry and local history, as we commemorate the anniversary of the historic El Reloj Factory by J.C. Newman Cigar Company, which first opened its doors on March 31, 1910.Held in Cigar Workers Park across the street from the historic factory, this free, all-ages event will feature local artists and poets reading original works inspired by Tampa, its cigar industry, El Reloj, and the tradition of the lectores—the voices that once filled cigar factories with literature and ideas. Cupcakes and refreshments will be provided as we gather together in honor of 116 years of culture, labor and community.
