Amigas Latinas held their annual Aixa Diaz scholarship dinner Nov. 13, and surprise guest was national poetry slam champion Staceyann Chin (photo 6), in town for the DEF Poetry Jam. Photo 3 is Argentinian artist Mabel Vilner, who donated a work to the event—won by Bibiana Andrade (pictured with the artist). C.C. Carter also performed her famous ‘HIPS’ poem (last photo). The event raises funds for scholarships going to Latina youth. Photos by Mel Ferrand
