“….come celebrate
with me that everyday
something has tried to K*ll me
and has failed.” —Lucille Clifton
EvoluCulture Ventures, in partnership with Dodge Poetry invite you to choose joy as poetic justice on Friday June 28th, from Life in the Arts (LITA) in the historic Krueger—Scott Mansion.
The Amethyst and Amber Griot Gala celebrates poetry as an essential language in the City of Newark—one that is a catalyst to advance social change while holding space for its practitioners and supporters in hopes
of living freely and cleanly.
The event will include performances from selected poets and poetry lovers in the Newark arts community, including Margie “Mia X” Johnson, Ameerah Shabazz-Bilal , J Read, Dr. Helena D. Lewis , Ysabel Gonzalez, Se'lah and the EvoluCulture Team.
