LUMINARY SOIRÉE

Awards & Fundraiser

An Intimate Evening of Elegance. A Celebration of Legacy & Literature. A Call to Illuminate the Future.

Join us for the inaugural Luminary Soirée, Kulturally LIT’s awards and fundraiser experience honoring the bold voices, creative leaders, and cultural revolutionaries shaping the literary landscape of the African Diaspora.

Held in the heart of New Haven, this unforgettable evening will gather writers, artists, cultural workers, and community champions for a night of inspiration, recognition, and connection.

Proceeds from the event will go to support Kulturally LIT's 2026 programming and all funds raised will be matched by an anonymous donor.
