Fall Fest at Central Library
The Indianapolis Public Library’s African American History Committee presents Fall Fest 2024 and Slammin’ Rhymes Challenge XVIII. The celebration takes place Saturday, Nov. 16 from noon – 4 p.m. at Central Library.
This year’s family-friendly Fall Fest will feature a powerful conversation with 16-year-old author and activist Yolanda Renee King, the only grandchild of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King. In addition to Kings’ talk, local youth will perform their winning entries from this year’s Slammin’ Rhymes Challenge, a contest for poets, rappers, and spoken word artists in grades 6-12. The event will also feature performances by the Sirlimitless dance group, Actors Ink Theatre Company, Rightntight Fitness with Ms Sylvia, the Chicago Boyz acrobatic team, and poet Mariah Ivey.
Fall Fest offers a safe, enjoyable, and free event that introduces young people in our community to inspiring role models. Fall Fest is made possible by The Indianapolis Foundation Library Fund and J. Steve & Donna D. Talley Fund through gifts to The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation.
