This event will feature Haitian American singer/songwriter, Christella Philippe; Haiti Creafo, traditional Haitian folkloric dancers; hand painted traditional Haitian clothing; and youth artwork from the organization, The Route, that provides support to the local Haitian community. The Music & Arts of Haiti will be presented at South Central Regional Library on Saturday, September 12th, from 2:00 – 3:30 PM.

About the series: 
Debuting in 2023, each annual Celebrating Our Neighborhood series highlights the arts and culture of one of the many vibrant immigrant and refugee communities of Louisville across three events (cuisine, history and music/art), held at different library locations throughout the city. Previous years have showcased the arts and culture of Cuba (2023), Iraq (2024), and the Democratic Republic of Congo (2025).

This unique series not only offers the opportunity to experience and learn about a diversity of global cultures, it also aims to elevate visibility of marginalized communities as well as build bridges between neighbors. By uplifting immigrant and refugee voices, Celebrating Our Neighborhood also helps to demonstrate our shared humanity and connectedness with one another around the world.

All Celebrating Our Neighborhood events are free, but registration is recommended to guarantee seating availability. Register with LFPL HERE.
