This year Get Lit was happy to host over 150 students and teachers from southern California at the Skirball Cultural Center. The event was a major success, and included renowned poets including, Los Angeles Poet Laureate, Robin Coste Lewis, Jeffrey McDaniel, Ashaki M. Jackson, and more! We were also very proud to offer a variety of workshops to our attendees, and build tighter connections with our students and teachers. Robin Coste Lewis delivered an amazing Keynote Workshop, and there were many great poetic performances to wrap up an exciting day at the Skirball. We’d like to thank Kelly Grace Thomas, and everyone else who helped bring this important event together. We’d also like to thank every student and teacher who attended, making this a powerful occasion in our year!
