Equality Arizona in partnership with the Piper Center host quarterly readings with a diverse, world-class cast of queer poets. We aim to strengthen and grow queer culture in Arizona by bringing the world's great LGBTQIA2s+ poets to our communities. This month, we are featuring poets local to Arizona & the Navajo Nation.
