Spoken Word Rwanda brings out an enthusiastic crowd for some fun poetry readings and audience participation at the Inema Art Center in Kacyiru.




Jocelyn, a Spoken Word regular, reading from her latest poem.



Diana, co-founder of Spoken Word Rwanda.



"The Voice" (you have to hear it to believe it) and Eric, two of the evening's performers.



Portia reads from her brand new Sci-fi novel.



Audience participation led to impromptu belly dancing, singing and break dancing.

Outside of the Inema Art Center there is a garden.  In the garden, there is this amazing sculpture/mobile.  In the background is the city of Kigali.  I dig it.

While photographing a spoken word event at the Inema Art Center, I was taken by the art that surrounded us all.  Here's a sample of that inspiration.

This is a variation on a photo I shared on May 1st.  I find I much prefer this one because this is pretty much exactly what I saw when I first turned the corner into the bathroom.  The striking contrasts and natural framing made me run down the hall to grab my camera before Chewbacca relinquished his post.

Rwanda has done something truly revolutionary; they've opened the first ever movie theater in the history of the country! It's a beaut. Hoping they get better fare than "Die Hard 22" and "Iron Man 317."
