The JaxbyJax Literary Arts Festival wishes to thank Alternate Roots for the generous grant that made this year’s event possible. Here is their mission: “Alternate ROOTS supports the creation and presentation of original art that is rooted in communities of place, tradition or spirit. We are a group of artists and cultural organizers based in the South creating a better world together. As Alternate ROOTS, we call for social and economic justice and are working to dismantle all forms of oppression—everywhere.”

As Jacksonville writers writing Jacksonville, the participants in JaxbyJax epitomize the creation and presentation of original art that is rooted in a community of place, tradition, and spirit – our hometown.

Come celebrate 10 years of JaxbyJax Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, December 1st, 2nd, and 3rd at FSCJ Kent Campus. Go here for details: https://www.jaxbyjax.com/
