Lunada New Moon Fest 2026
October 10 @ 5:00 pm – 10:00 pm
For the past 25 years, Lunada Literary Lounge has gathered on the full moon to honor spoken word, poetry, musica, and literatura. On its silver anniversary, Galería will instead gather under the new moon, holding three seasonal gatherings; the final gathering on October 10, 2026.
Although shrouded in darkness, the new moon signifies new beginnings, limitless possibilities, and rejuvenation.This lunar phase allows us to set intentions with a blank slate, and give ourselves and our community moments to re-energize with art and the words of our community during destabilization and high anxiety.
Join Galería de la Raza on Saturday, October 10 at Studio 24 for the final installment of Lunada New Moon Fest!
Free admission.
Representing Redwood City and the Bay Area, poet, emcee, and truth messenger, Know Expressions? discovered poetry through hip hop at the age of 8 years old, and there has been no turning back. Gravitating to all the elements of hip hop, MC-ing was his primary outlet; hip hop was his poetry; writing and performing became his therapy.
Influenced by experience and street narratives, he continues to carry on the tradition by sharing authentic lyrics with an objective to uplift, motivate, and put a stop to all wack MC’s. All while being thankful for the Pioneers who’ve paved the way for the hip hop community.
