THIRD ANNUAL MAP 2026 MUSIC ART POETRY THE ART OF BLACKNESS

Overview

MAP 2026: The Art of Blackness

Baton Rouge's premier Black carpet experience returns for its third year. MAP (Music. Art. Poetry.) is a fully immersive celebration of Black culture and creative excellence, one night where every discipline lives in the same room: live music, visual art, poetry, fashion, and film converge into a single unforgettable evening. Walk the Black carpet, move through galleries of original work, catch a DJ battle, feel a spoken word set land, watch a runway moment unfold, all set against food, drinks, and a room built for the culture. Presented by Creatives for the Culture, September 18, 2026, at Pura Vida Coffee Bar. Tickets $45 creativesfortheculture.net
