SUMMARY:Take Your Time Debut Novel by Enzo Escobar In Conversation with Jorge Santos
DESCRIPTION:Join Enzo Escobar discussing their debut novel Take Your Time\, in conversation with Jorge Santos! \nA mysterious app installs itself on 16-year-old Laura Murray’s phone\, allowing her to rewind time. The allure of such power quickly leads her to abuse it\, turning the tide in her favor in every action\, but not without consequences. A freak accident causes her estranged friend Marie to vanish from reality. Confused\, scared\, but determined to get Marie home safely\, Laura and her friends confide in a mysterious boy who claims to know where her former best friend is-and how to bring her home. \nTake Your Time is a mind-bending coming-of-age story that blends sci-fi\, fantasy\, and psychological realism reminiscent of Persona and The Catcher in the Rye. Reality-breaking power falls into the hands of a teenage girl\, Laura Murray\, who uses it for less-than-altruistic intentions. But she is forced to leave her comfort zone when the consequences of her actions lead her on a daring rescue mission into the Fourth Dimension\, which holds truths both far beyond what Laura and her friends could ever imagine and from within themselves. \nEnzo Escobar is a young Colombian-American teenager from Elmhurst\, NY. He has an affinity for Science Fiction\, Romance\, and Horror genres. He lives in Elmhurst\, NY\, with his mother\, grandmother\, and his dog Venus. \n

SUMMARY:La ausencia y la ciudad \, de Cristina Candela - Book Presentation – Q&A with the Author
DESCRIPTION:An intimate evening of poetry and conversation featuring Cristina Candela’s La ausencia y la ciudad / Absence and the City\, exploring desire\, absence\, migration\, and the experience of inhabiting New York City. \nSinopsis — La ausencia y la ciudad: \n«Me voy a fumar esta ciudad»\, escribe Cristina Candela\, y en ese verso condensa toda una relación física y visceral con Nueva York: una ciudad que se recorre\, se respira y termina por incorporarse al cuerpo. En La ausencia y la ciudad / Absence and the City\, la autora convierte el deseo\, la pérdida y la experiencia de habitar esta metrópolis en materia poética\, transitando de la intimidad de los vínculos afectivos al espacio urbano\, donde el metro\, las lavanderías\, el High Line\, Times Square\, Loisaida\, los neones y las calles dejan de ser simple escenario para adquirir voz propia. \nOrganizado en dos secciones —«Ausencia» y «Nueva York»— seguidas de dos «Bonus Tracks»\, el poemario explora la ruptura\, las contradicciones del deseo y las formas de pertenencia que solo surgen en una ciudad hecha de movimiento y de encuentro entre culturas. \nLa convivencia del español y el inglés reproduce el pulso de una metrópolis migrante y polifónica. Con una voz sensual\, directa e irreverente\, Candela aborda también la violencia contra las mujeres\, la xenofobia\, el racismo y la desigualdad\, oponiendo a las estructuras que buscan disciplinar los cuerpos una poética del movimiento\, la diferencia y la libertad. \nCon traducción al inglés de Magdalena Arias y prólogo de Nilton Maa\, La ausencia y la ciudad / Absence and the City es\, en definitiva\, un poemario sobre lo que perdemos\, lo que deseamos y las ciudades que\, mientras las habitamos\, terminan también habitándonos. \nAcerca de  Cristina Candela: \n Cristina Candela es poeta y bailaora de flamenco. Ha vivido en Estambul\, Granada\, Barcelona y Nueva York\, ciudades que atraviesan su escritura y su manera de entender el cuerpo\, el movimiento y la experiencia urbana. Escribe con frecuencia durante sus trayectos en el metro y encuentra en la ciudad\, sus encuentros y contradicciones una materia esencial para su creación. \nSu poesía se caracteriza por una voz directa\, corporal e irreverente\, en la que confluyen deseo\, desplazamiento\, identidad y libertad. Su obra incorpora también una mirada crítica sobre la violencia contra las mujeres\, la xenofobia\, el racismo y la desigualdad\, reivindicando el cuerpo y la diferencia como territorios de resistencia y creación. \nEn 2023 publicó su primer poemario\, La piel no es frontera\, con la Editorial Talón de Aquiles de Barcelona. En 2026 publica La ausencia y la ciudad / Absence and the City\, su segundo poemario y primera edición bilingüe\, con Nueva York Poetry Press.

SUMMARY:Cristina Candela\, Juan Pedro Jimenez & Dustin Carlson | Flamenco
DESCRIPTION:Join Cristina Candela\, Juan Pedro Jiménez\, and Dustin Carlson for an evening rooted in the depth and tradition of flamenco. Through expressive dance\, powerful cante\, and guitar\, the performance unfolds with intensity\, precision\, and resonance\, revealing the dialogue at the heart of this art form. \n7:00 PM to 8:00 PM (First Set)  \n9:00 PM to 10:00 PM (Second Set)  \nAdmission: $20: Cover at Mezzanine. \nFeaturing: \n\n\nCristina Candela / Bailaora \n\n\nDustin Carlson / Guitar \n\n\nJuan Pedro Jimenez / Cantaor \n\n\nAbout Cristina Candela: \nSince 2007\, I have been working as a flamenco dancer. My experience spans a variety of settings\, including tablaos like El Patio Andaluz in Barcelona\, and international tours in Malaysia and Singapore with Chalachi. I’ve contributed to companies such as Maria Carrasco Cia and Apuchelando Cia in multiple roles: dancing\, choreographing\, and producing. \nI’ve also engaged in fusion projects\, notably with Anlage Cia in Granada\, and in artistic-educational initiatives. For instance\, I served as part of the ambassador group for the “Voices of Tomorrow” project under the Yehudi Menuhin Foundation. \nMy involvement in the arts extends to film. I’ve acted\, danced\, and worked in production for several short and independent films. \nMy interests encompass all aspects of performing and audiovisual arts. I’m as fascinated with the spotlight as I am with behind-the-scenes work. From a young age\, I’ve been driven by a desire to create – to dance\, choreograph\, design scenographies. My foremost aim is to express my vision of the world as clearly as possible. \nTo this day\, the words of Pina Bausch echo in my mind: “Dance\, dance\, otherwise we are lost.” \nAbout Juan Pedro Jiménez: \nJuan Pedro Jiménez is a cantaor from Cádiz\, in the south of Spain\, deeply rooted in the flamenco traditions of Andalusia. Raised performing alongside the gypsy family Romeros de Vejer\, he developed his voice within an environment where flamenco is lived as a daily\, communal expression. \nA singer and guitarist\, Juan Pedro refined his musical foundation through formal studies at the Royal Conservatory\, while maintaining a strong connection to the oral and lived traditions of cante. His singing carries the depth\, intensity\, and emotional directness characteristic of his homeland. \nHe has performed extensively throughout Andalusia\, including appearances at the Ferias of Sevilla\, Jerez\, El Puerto de Santa María\, Sanlúcar\, Algeciras\, and Córdoba. He has also participated in El Rocío with the Hermandad de Jerez\, as well as in Peñas Flamencas and festivals across the Province of Cádiz. \nWherever he performs\, Juan Pedro Jiménez brings a voice shaped by tradition\, experience\, and a profound connection to the cultural landscape of southern Spain.

SUMMARY:WSR Rockaway Run
DESCRIPTION:It’s that time of year again. Let’s get together and run across Queens – to Rockaway Beach about a 14mile-ish run. Please read the full event description so that you understand what you are possibly signing up for. \nThis is a great opportunity to do something that most normal people would never consider doing. This will absolutely not be an easy run. It’ll likely be hot and humid. There are some long hills in the first half. And\, the scenery along the second half of the run is not exactly the most exciting in our borough. But\, we’ll end on the beach! \nWe will take this run at a casual pace – all are welcome to participate as long as you can complete distance without stopping. This said\, we will be forced to stop periodically for traffic lights and as-needed to be sure that the group sticks together (i.e.\, we won’t lose anybody). \nWhere you can meet us: Woodside Ave & 56th St! \nIf you would like to meet us somewhere along the way (whether for convenience or to cover a shorter distance)\, please message the organizer to coordinate. It is quite easy to take one of the several Woodhaven Blvd. buses to a suitable point that will work for you. \nPlease RSVP by Friday Sept 4th! \nPlease be sure to use sunblock\, and bring whatever fluids you may need. Be sure to bring cash\, as well as your Metrocard for the return trip. \nPlease be very sure that you are ready for the distance before agreeing to participate. This is for your safety and to allow others to meet their training objectives. If you have questions about anything\, please message your organizer. \nThis run will proceed\, rain\, shine\, heat and just about anything else. In the event of torrential rain\, thunderstorms or hazardous conditions\, we will post an update and email all who RSVP\, no later than 7:15am. \nRunners attending WSR events assume full personal responsibility for any injury or illness (COVID-19 related or otherwise) that may occur during or after participation. WSR assumes no responsibility for the health and safety of any attendee. \n*** \nPlease see our full calendar of events \nhttp://www.woodsidesunnysiderunners.com/events/calendar/ \njoin our Facebook group \nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/wsrunners/ \nlike us on Facebook \nhttps://www.facebook.com/WoodsideSunnysideRunners \ncheck out our Strava group \nhttps://www.strava.com/clubs/206158 \nand follow us on Instagram \nhttps://instagram.com/woodsidesunnysiderunners/ \n***
