the role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible
— toni cade bambara

artist bio:

cat h. bradley (she/her) is a black, mixed race, queer earth child and healing artist born and raised on anishinaabe lands (ann arbor, mi.). her poetry and spoken word are created to be in service of her own and our collective liberation and return to love. her hope and intention is that her work has an awakening and reWilding effect—that sharing her own truth of spirit connects others with their own and sows seeds of desire in them to re-member and reclaim their deeper more primal nature and free ways of being. cat is a weaver of embodiment, energy, flow, and soul love. she longs to make healing irresistible.

upcoming events & performances:

host: poetry open mic

when: FIRST WEDNESDAY of each month beginning wednesday september 3rd! this event is founded and co-hosted by myself and my sweet poet soul friend Forrest. Our dear friends at North Star graciously provided the space for us to debut our idea (which is not your ordinary open mic!) back in May. it was a wild success with almost 40 folx showing up to perform, listen, be with each other, and grow through our creativity. we are so excited to continue this format that is less traditional open mic, and more community healing through creativity. JOIN US!
