We will make our way down 24th, to a 49-year-old Mission institution, La Reyna Bakery, for the Pan Dulce Poets, a beloved Mission series started in May of 2015 by Ricardo Tavarez. Here, poets read surrounded by pan dulce and used a converted paleta cart as a podium while Louie passed out cafecito y chocolate caliente to everyone. Featuring Ellie Lopez, Pan Dulce Poets founder Ricardo Tavarez, Michelle Ibarra, and former San Francisco Poet Laureate Alejandro Murguía
