Poets for Relief (P4R) was created with the sole purpose of providing relief to those in need due to the catastrophe caused by Hurricane Katrina.With the vision of helping at least one person...one family...one community, P4R set out to gather donations from around our amazing city, Austin, TX and create a night of entertainment that no one would forget. Most importantly, we wanted to hold a benefit to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.After many discussions and brainstorming sessions with friends and family, SPEAK UP LOOK UP RISE UP was born. I am in awe of the outpuring of support from local businesses. Clearly the show could not have happened without the time and talent of our performers! Spoken Word artists from all over Texas gathered in Austin for this cause.It's time again to "rally the spoken word troops". Please check back and join us as we put heart and soul into making a difference.
