A.A.C. Poetry Jamz @ Blackbird Coffee Jan. 2011
A.A.C. loves giving new artist the spotlight and stage-time to take our audiences to new levels of thought, laughter, and love. This January, Cabrik Harrison, GCSU student and Poetry Jamz enthusiast will take the Blackbird Coffee stage Wed. Jan 19th @ 8:30pm to deliver soulful flavors unlike any we've seen in Milledgeville.
Cabrik Harrison is a Senior Marketing Major at Georgia College and State University from Moultrie Georgia. Cabrik Always enjoyed writing, but did not fully experiment with poetry until about 8th grade. Poetry became Cabrik’s guide throughout her teenage years and began with a few words in a typical teenagers journal . Cabrik later learned that poetry was not that simple, in fact it could be quite complex, and that sometimes the best poetry is the most complex. After Meeting with some students involved in A.A.C. at GCSU her freshman year, Cabrik decided to write more and try to get into different areas of spoken word. Poetry became a release not only for herself but others , her way to express the feelings of, and give hope to a community of people that she grew up around and interacted with from home and in college, particularly women. Even though to this day she still doesn’t consider herself a “poet”, she has learned that you don’t make yourself a poet, sometimes you just are , and that’s not a bad thing… that is a blessing.
Start the year off right with a healthy dose of good vibes and good people at A.A.C.'s Poetry Jamz @ Blackbird Coffee. Show date/time: Wednesday Jan 19, 8:30 p.m. Blackbird Coffee.
