Organization
Flamenco Poets Society
The Flamenco Poets Society is an organization dedicated to promoting an appreciation and understanding of "Latin American and Spanish poets and the Flamenco arts". Poetry is a passion for sharing our experiences of love, death, humanity, honor and reminiscences. The Flamenco Poets Society strives to convey the passion of these poets who have recorded their experiences through poetry. Our readings have taken place in different locations in Houston.
We present two readings per year, and our guest readers have passionately presented bilingual programs featuring the works of Federico Garcia Lorca, Pablo Neruda, Ruben Dario, Gabriela Mistral and the Anthology of Flamenco Poetry, Pablo Neruda Centennial Celebration, Julia de Burgos, Sor Juana Inez de la Cruz, Jose Gorostiza, Octavio Paz and the "Festival of Latin American Poets, our local talented Storytelling Tellers, and César Vallejo.
