Slam poet Regie Cabico to perform at CWU on Jan. 31

A small stage tucked in the back room of a New York City café is where poet and spoken word artist Regie Cabico found his calling.

Cabico is visiting Central Washington University on Jan. 30 and 31 as part of the year-long series “Social Justice and Human Rights Dialogues: Migration.”
