Poetry In The Park

Waiva's Museum, featuring Waiva

12:00 pm to 1:00 pm - RSVP on Eventbrite - James Weldon Johnson Park
Join Waiva for a spoken word performance at James Weldon Johnson Park. Waivas Museum is a set of poetic pieces that describe and uplift my soul and spirit and reassure me of who and who’s I am. In return, I hope in faith that the crowd will touch and agree and proclaim the same feelings and truth over their lives.

Waiva is an exquisite young lady who enjoys creating and writing about the finer things in life. Such as virtue, self love and romance. She’s a creative Genius who is blessed with many ideas and talents and loves inspiring her community. Her poetry has shaped her life and honestly may have saved it. She also has amazing taste in music and fashion.
