I had so much fun at the first Hispanic Panic and the event was such a success that it’s happening again. I hope that those in the NYC area can come through and support the amazing work of Latino writers/artists.

New York City’s only ongoing monthly queer reading series gets frisky in May, with HISPANIC PANIC! Host Charlie Vázquez has gathered a brazen roster of Latino/a literary talent, and with an LGBT/feminist slant that is sure to shock and reveal. Join him and literary ninjas Karen Jaime, Charles Rice-González, Cristina Izaguirre, Maegan ‘La Mamita Mala’ Ortiz and special guest, scholar and writer Larry La Fountain, who will be joining us from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, to promote his new book Blue Fingernails. These six writers will be presenting writing chronicling the politics and desire of contemporary New York City queerness and much, much more.

NOWHERE is located at 322 E 14h St (btwn 1st/2nd Aves)
