::VBB's mission is to cross borders, sustain dialogue and incite change through living art::

 “VBB is a place to be, a place to hear, a much-needed sanctuary for artists' expressions, for the evolution of consciousness-a sanctuary for the collective.”
Poet Loueva Smith

Voices Breaking Boundaries (VBB) is a nonprofit arts organization open to artists, individuals and organizations from a multitude of perspectives, backgrounds and countries. From a humble start five years ago as a grassroots literary collective organized by five diverse women poets and writers hosting readings at a local bookstore, VBB now produces more than 10 performance events annually at local venues; offers educational residencies and performances to local youth and adults; and provides a support network for writers to practice, publish, perform and receive recognition for their work.
