My artsy-minded Asian American folks in New York are probably familiar with the Sulu Series. Now, East Coast friends will be pleased to hear that Sulu is expanding its grassroots artists network, providing a home for AAPI-focused spoken word and multidisciplinary artists in Washington D.C.
Sulu DC kicks off this Saturday night, November 21 at St. Stephens Church in Washington D.C. The inaugural evening will feature performances from artists Aparna Nancherla, Taiyo Na, Alex Cena, Adriel Luis and Talu Abu Rahmen. Here are the event details:
