We are incredibly proud of our founder, Dr. Katrina Burruss, for her recent speaking engagement at Livingstone College.

From overcoming adversity to inspiring the next generation of leaders, she continues to use her voice, story, and platform to create impact far beyond the page.

At Lit for the Culture, we believe stories have the power to heal, educate, and transform communities—and our founder embodies that mission every day.

Congratulations, Your Lit for the Culture family is cheering you on.

✨ OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

To our Lit for the Culture™ community—

We believe in creating experiences that are not only beautiful, but intentional, aligned, and worthy of every single person in the room.

With that said, Lit for the Culture™ has been rescheduled.

This decision was made with purpose—to elevate the experience, secure the right space, and ensure that what we deliver reflects the standard of excellence you deserve.

Because this isn’t just an event…

It’s a movement.
It’s storytelling.
It’s culture—curated.

To those who already secured tickets—your presence is valued, and your tickets will be honored for the new date. Updated details, including our new venue and experience enhancements, will be released soon.

And for those who thought they missed it…

Your seat just opened back up.

Stay close.
The next chapter will be even bigger, bolder, and more aligned.

Sound. Story. Sisterhood.
