ArtOfficial presents our July Featured Artist: Dr. Rebecca Dupas

A Louisiana native, hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, Dr. Dupas is making her Texas debut — where else but at the ArtOfficial Showcase, where the mic meets mastery and every word leaves a mark.

So… Who is Dr. Dupas?

And what makes her ArtOfficial?

Dr. Rebecca Dupas performed her first original poem at age 18 and by her early twenties was trusted to co-host what was then the longest-running weekly open mic in Baltimore City. Two decades later, she is a Baltimore Legend award recipient and named Baltimore’s 2024 Renaissance Woman of the Year, among other awards in DC and beyond. Dr. Dupas is an accomplished multi-disciplinary artist known for her vulnerability and relatability. Her impactful career and writing ability have earned her recognition on platforms like C-SPAN, PBS, WEAA, Sirius XM, The Washington Post, The Afro, Baltimore’s Artscape, and the DC Black Film Festival.

Come experience a night of powerful artistry, unforgettable spoken word. Witness a moment that will echo beyond the mic.
