Alternatively, poets could submit poems that artists interpreted in paintings.

Live
Flamenco in Kits
As a result of the extravagant features of the dance, the word fandango is used
as a synonym for a quarrel, a big fuss or a brilliant exploit. Flamenco Coast
certainly intends to take you on a brilliant exploit by performing the festive
rhythm of many in flamenco. This is combined with the Sevillanas, a rhythm named
after the city of Seville , whose streets lined with orange trees, weeping
fountains and breezy courtyards inspired the dance performed in festivals.
Experience an evening of power and passion where the best is yet to come. Every
Saturday, 7pm, at the Wired Monk, 2610 West 4th in Kits. Tix $8.
