Matt Griffin is a professional photographer and writer. Originally from Newnan, GA, Matt moved to Jacksonville in 2019. Since then, he’s overcome adversity to develop deep connections in and around Jax and now works in the freelance world as Matt Snaps. Ultimately, he wants to write his life memoir, among other personal development works, on how to achieve healing from generational abuse to lead others on their healing journeys.

Griffin will read from his work on Saturday, December 2nd, at 3 pm in the Student Showcase.

JaxbyJax Literary Arts Festival X, a celebration of Jacksonville Writers Writing Jacksonville, will be held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, December 1, 2, and 3, 2023 at FSCJ’s Kent Campus, 3939 Roosevelt Blvd, Jacksonville, FL, 32205.
