Poetry & Posole with Bobby LeFebre
Celebrate National Poetry Month (April) by attending the 2nd annual Poetry & Posole at The Fort Garland Museum with renowned poet Bobby LeFebre. A posole luncheon will take place at 12:00 PM, followed by a poetry reading and performance at 1:00 PM. The event is free and open to the public, but please RSVP in advance. Bobby LeFebre is an award-winning writer, performer and cultural worker fusing a non-traditional multi-hyphenated professional identity to imagine new realities, empower communities, advance arts and culture, and serve as an agent of provocation, transformation, equity, and social change. In 2019, LeFebre was named Colorado Theater Person of the Year, and appointed as Colorado’s 8th Poet Laureate, making him the youngest and first person of color to be appointed to the position in its 100-year history. LeFebre was named a National Catalyst for Change Fellow in 2020 and an Academy of American Poets Poet Laureate Fellow in 2021. LeFebre’s family has deep Colorado roots and has called the San Luis Valley and Northern New Mexico home since time immemorial.
