The Dawn of Latinx Creative Writing in Florida

Join Descolonizarte TEATRO and  the University of Central Florida’s Department of Modern Languages and Literatures on a journey through Florida's early 20th century literary landscape that serves as a precursor of today’s Latinx writing. 

The event will focus on poetry and theatre acknowledging the vibrant creative expressions emerging from Florida's Spanish-speaking communities, particularly in coastal areas heavily influenced by the tobacco industry. 

Discover the rich creativity that was a product of its time, as poetry and theater reached the public in formats that encouraged audience participation to construct meaning.

This bilingual program aims to bring awareness and advance the public’s understanding of The Dawn of Latinx Creative Writing in Florida.

Partnership with Descolonizarte TEATRO and the University of Central Florida’s Department of Modern Languages and Literatures.
