Experience the Live Magazine Show, Lit & Luz’s signature celebration. Each year, Lit & Luz supports the creation of new collaborative artworks between writers, visual artists, and musicians from Chicago and Mexico. In the months leading up to the festival, teams of participating artists from the two countries work remotely to co-create a performance incorporating their respective mediums. The pieces are presented during the show in both Spanish and English, and they often explore the relationship between the languages, art forms, and cultures of the United States and Mexico.

Ambassador Reyna Torres Mendivil, Consul General of Mexico in Chicago, will provide opening remarks at the event.
