February’s Ign!te was an event to remember, filled with truth and positive energy. Performances ranged from singing, to rapping, to poetry in different styles and forms. Our feature of the month, Jocelyn Mosman, shared a few poems surrounding topics such as gender and identity, to which the audience was able to relate and understand to some capacity. It was elating to feel the energy pulsing through the room via laughter and snapping. There was a subtle call-and-response that allowed the open mic to smoothly transition into our feature who left us with some gems to take with us. Overall, the space was truly transformative and welcoming to the Springfield community and members of the 5 College Area. We look forward to seeing what next month has in store!
