Mission
A four-day celebration of arts in New Orleans, Words & Music Literary Festival strives to create a space where every voice is valued and validated. We cultivate a program that represents who we are as a city. It is our hope that every single person who attends Words & Music sees themselves represented in the discussions taking place.
Proceeds from Words & Music support One Book One New Orleans‘ year-round adult literacy outreach and free public programming.
