On Saturday, February 28, 2026, Gary Comer Youth Center is hosting Lit Fest: Celebrating the Power of Black Literacy & Liberation — a Black History Month celebration exploring the many forms of literacy that shape our lives today and reimagining it as more than just words on a page. Through immersive workshops, performances, and conversations, Lit Fest explores literacy as a pathway to self-expression, wellness, financial empowerment, digital fluency, and cultural preservation.
The event will feature keynote discussions, performances, interactive workshops, author talks, and family-friendly activities designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.
Also check out other Festivals in Chicago, Workshops in Chicago, Health & Wellness events in Chicago.
