Langston Hughes Youth Event

The Langston Hughes Youth Event has been a motivating program for our youth in Rhode Island. Through Langston Hughes' words, the youth programming has allowed young readers to identify and share their artistic talents, particularly those in the urban core cities of Providence, Pawtucket, and Central Falls.

Unfortunately, like so many community groups, the COVID pandemic has adversely affected our ability to provide programming through outreach, engagement and gathering with our beloved audience. Today we are asking for your help.

We are excited to announce that we are developing a robust youth event for September 2022 on "Identity." but we need $10,000 to make this inspirational program that our youth deserve happen. Will you help and support this event? We need your donations. No amount is too small, and your donations are tax-deductible.

Please help us keep alive the tradition of experiencing Langston Hughes, the Poet Laureate of Harlem, for the State of Rhode Island and beyond.
