New Orleans has a growing number of
African and Latin American Wordsmiths
crafting some of the most engaging verse that addresses
social justice concerns, and this "one-day" festival launches
during April Poetry Month in 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 Latin Late Night Series.

Produced by JTT & ArteFuturo Productions 
Hecho en la Nueva Orleans
