"Poetic Heat: A Summer Art Showcase" is an immersive evening that blends the rhythm of poetry with the vibrancy of visual art. It’s more than an exhibit—it’s a celebration of expression, community, and the electric energy of summer in Los Angeles.
As guests arrive, they’ll be greeted with wine and hors d’oeuvres, ambient music, and walls filled with powerful, original artwork by emerging and established artists. At the heart of the night are live poetry performances, where nine poets take the mic to share their truths, stories, and emotions—setting the tone for a night full of reflection, creativity, and healing.
Attendees can meet the artists, purchase artwork, network, and be part of a movement that celebrates culture, art, and purpose.
