ADMISSION: This event is free and open to the public.
Step into an evening of powerful expression with the 2024 InsideOut Detroit Youth Performance Troupe. Four young poets, each finding their voice, will share original spoken word pieces shaped by their year of growth and collaboration with local artists. Inspired by Meleko Mokgosi’s Zones of None Being, their performances will weave together themes of identity, community, and resilience. Join us as these emerging voices bring poetry to life, offering a glimpse into their unique perspectives and the world they are shaping with their words.
