About this Event

Spoken Word Performance at SPAACES

Join us for an unforgettable evening of art, performance, and conversation as we celebrate the opening of Traces of Change: Mark Making, Text, and (Social) Progress? This night will include a live performance by People Trippin - a collaboration between Tihda Vongkoth of Modern Marimba and spoken word artist Melanie Lavender. Their genre-defying performance weaves rhythm, melody, and poetic narrative into a one-of-a-kind "sonopoetic" experience.
