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.

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.

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.

David Gitin and Gloria Avner-Key Largo, Florida 2013

ORGANIZERS: David Gitin and Gloria Avner

CONTACT: ddgitin@gmail.com

We are on for Saturday, the 28th of September. Will we be the most Southeastern celebrators on Turtle Island? It’s too soon to say, or care, but our small corner is going to have a lot of fun, blowing down the sun with Maryann’s Queen Conch, Donnagaye’s LaKota drumming and blessing songs, Wardell’s didgeridoo vibrations, David and Gloria’s poetry along with a mix of words from friends. We are happy to be part of this world’s wordsmith community.

Twelve people joined for joyous celebration at sunset tonight, this Saturday eve. Friends who’ve painted together, partied, feasted, fasted, raised funds for many causes over the years, came together to share poetry and song for this world wide event, “100,000 Poets for Change.” It was, in short, terrific, meaningful, and even awe-inspiring. A man just released from hospital read a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay, “Dirge Without Music,” that had woken him up from his pain, a woman read her writings for a brother lost to addiction, David read Bob Dylan’s 1983 “Lord, Protect My Child.” The rest of us sang, Native American Lakota Honor songs with drumming accompaniment, full throated, full hearted, with a whale of a sunset in the foreground and a tableful of food at our fingertips. I sang a Huna song, “Remember the Way of the Wind.” We made music, our own accompaniment. Maryann blew down the sun with her conch shell. Everyone went away thankful for the get-together. One friend brought me two roses by way of thanks. The roses should be for you, Michael. The poem below came out of the evening:

Around the Circle

one woman starts
her solo
five more sudden voices
shake the wooden dock
picnic table plastic chairs
whole Gulf of Mexico
sound so strong it startles
sunset

Lakota lyrics shout out
honor to the good red road
no holds barred
high pitch keen ensemble
cries crescendo
round the thump-a thump-a
heart beat
well-worn drums
the shh shh shake of deer toes
