        A Peña is a gathering of musicians, artists, and friends who
        come to share their work and to play together. Peñas take
        historical root from Chilean social gatherings during the 60s
        and early 70s that expressed the spirit of creativity and
        resistance in melody, poems, and artwork under a brutally
        repressive regime. Though they exist throughout the
        Spanish-speaking <span class="text_exposed_show">world, they
          came into fashion in Latin America with the Nueva Trova
          musical movement that ran in tandem with the revolutions of
          the day. In some places the term 'tertulia' is used, where in
          English we don't have an equivalent word. (Open Mic implies a
          certain formality and performance that doesn't quite fit this
          atmosphere.)<br>
          Peñas are encouraged to bring your own stories, songs, poems,
          or artwork to share. Please bring your songs, bring your
          verse, in whatever language or on whatever instrument.<br>
          <br>
          Each peña hosted by e5 will be dedicated to the great
          tradition of someone who fought with the instrument of song
          and the spirit that defied borders. Please accompany us at our
          events with live music and ample nylon-string guitars.<br>
