Open Mic Night at Kọ: Featuring AC Lightnin
🗓 Saturday, May 10th
🕢 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 Kọ Cafe, Jersey City
Step into an evening of rhythm, rhyme, and raw expression at Kọ’s Open Mic Night — our monthly gathering for poets, storytellers, and creatives of all kinds. Whether you're performing or just soaking it in, there's something special about sharing space and stories in community.
This month, we’re excited to welcome our featured poet: AC Lightnin — a New York-based spoken word emcee, filmmaker, and host. With a blend of witty wordplay, hip-hop rhythm, and deeply rooted Christian faith, AC brings a style that’s as thought-provoking as it is powerful. From Off-Broadway stages to poetry festivals across the East Coast, his voice carries truth, vulnerability, and a bold love for art.
