New Orleans has a growing number of
African American and Latin American Wordsmiths
crafting some of the most engaging verse that addresses social concerns,
and this festival launches in April 2023 to celebrate these brilliant
​poets of color in the Crescent City.

The event will also feature musicians that have been part of the
TEATRO SIN FRONTERAS Series.
  
More details to come
