Haitian Heritage House proudly presents a special book signing event honoring Haitian literary excellence, ancestral memory, and cultural truth.
This intimate evening features Rekèy yon Nanm by Michaëlle Milien—a powerful poetic work that pays homage to the land, the ancestors, and the enduring spirit of Haitian identity. Through words that carry history, resilience, and reverence, this gathering invites the community into a shared moment of reflection and cultural affirmation.
Hosted at our Trenton location, the event aligns with Haitian Heritage House’s mission to preserve Haitian culture while creating spaces for intellectual exchange, artistic expression, and intergenerational dialogue.
This event is part of Haitian Heritage House’s ongoing Cultural Preservation and International Exchange initiatives, spotlighting Haitian voices and ensuring our stories remain visible, valued, and passed forward.
We invite community members, cultural leaders, educators, and supporters to join us for an evening where literature becomes legacy.
