About Events with Busboys and Poets - Shirlington
Busboys and Poets is a community where racial and cultural connections are consciously uplifted...a place to take a deliberate pause and feed your mind, body and soul...a space for art, culture and politics to intentionally collide...we believe that by creating such a space we can inspire social change and begin to transform our community and the world.Busboys and Poets is a gathering space unlike any other, and events are among the things we do best! Each of our restaurants feature a unique performance space with its own stage, lighting, projection and sound equipment. In addition to in-house series (events produced exclusively by Busboys and Poets) and a number of weekly and monthly poetry programs, we also host an exciting variety of functions ranging from meetings, private receptions and happy hours to public programming.Check out our amazing event space:
