Brainstorm & Brew: Busboys & Poets Open Mic Night (Shirlington)

Meet up with other NVWC members as KaNikki Jakarta, Alexandria’s first African American Poet Laureate, hosts two hours of diverse voices, maybe even yours. KaNikki will be our featured speaker at our January 2026 meeting. Make sure you buy tickets in advance and arrive early so we can try to be seated together (we can’t hold seats): https://www.busboysandpoets.com/events/th-evt-43902304/#
