Pilar Velez-AIPEH-Miami, Florida 2013
Organizer: Pilar Velez
Contact: poetasyescritoresmiami@gmail.com
aipehmiami.com & http://poetasyescritoresmiami.com/
Pilar Velez is the founder and director of AIPEH Miami and we will celebrate the “Mes del Libro Hispano 2013” (Month of the Hispanic Book 2013) from September 15 to October 15, 2013. We have several poetry events and we
would like to add these events to the 100 Thousand Poets for Change.
AIPEH Miami es una asociación artístico-cultural que brinda beneficios y oportunidades de crecimiento profesional a sus miembros y participa en eventos culturales dentro y fuera de los Estados Unidos.
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Escritores.Hispanos?ref=br_tf
Mission
La misión de AIPEH Miami es construir una organización solida que brinde beneficios culturales y oportunidades de crecimiento profesional a sus miembros; así como también promover mediante la gestión cultural la apreciación por las artes en la comunidad.
Description
AIPEH MIAMI está conformado por un grupo honorable de escritores y artistas que creen en la eficacia del trabajo en equipo; se fundó en marzo de 2011 y es liderado por su fundadora y directora, la escritora Pilar Vélez.
AIPEH Miami participa en eventos culturales dentro y fuera de los Estados Unidos, ofrece talleres especializados dirigidos a los escritores y artistas y sirve de puente a aquellos escritores que deseen hacer conocer su obra en el mercado Norteamericano.
AIPEH MIAMI no es una editorial.
AIPEH Miami ha abierto sus puertas a todos aquellos autores cubanos que residen en la isla y que nos contactan con el propósito de que a través de nuestro portal en Internet, demos a conocer su trabajo literario. AIPEH Miami no cuenta con los fondos económicos para realizar algún tipo de compensación, pero sirve como medio promotor para que el mundo se entere de la existencia del autor y de su talento.
AIPEH Miami no se hace responsable de actos de plagio de los contenidos publicados. En todas las instancias se sugiere que los autores registren legalmente su obra para que protejan sus derechos de autor.
AIPEH Miami no tiene ningún tipo de afiliación religiosa, política o de cualquier otra índole. El objetivo e interés de la organización es el de elevar la calidad literaria y artística y apoyar a sus autores.
=========
Estamos celebrando con poesía, música y libros el Mes del Libro
Hispano y la importancia de que los escritores nos vinculemos a la
comunidad para poder compartir de viva voz, la magia de la
literatura.
Todo el público es bienvenido.
