From the opening of the Atlanta Writer Resource Center in 1986 to the AXC Literary Program in 2019, literature and literacy have been at the core four programming. Join us as we pay tribute to Malkia M’Buzi Moore, who started us on this long history of writing programs and brought celebrated poets and authors into our orbit. To Theresa Davis, who has continued that literary tradition with innovative classes and open mics to the introduction of our Slam tradition. Today, the literary program is a centerpiece of our community work, reaching multiple generations and offering over 60 events a year.
