The Poetry Potluck is a grassroots, quarterly community gathering which seeks to build stronger communities by creating safe spaces for in-person social engagement, making all spaces learning spaces, increasing access to the arts for underserved populations, and providing opportunities for artists to share and display their work. The Poetry Potluck averages 100-200 attendees (which we call CUZZINs) per gathering and now has a steady roster of 30+ active volunteers who believe in our mission and have personally been affected by attending. The gathering celebrates Miami's rich cultural diversity, food sharing, art-based learning activations, and of course Poetry.
