DYSPLA Festival: celebrating the works of dyslexic artists, playwrights, poets, and more!
Since 2007, Festival Producer Lennie Varvarides has been on a mission to revolutionize how people see and understand dyslexia. There is only one way to best explain the creative benefits of dyslexia–and that is to produce the work of dyslexic story makers.
The DYSPLA Festival is the first of its kind to challenge and celebrate the term ‘dyslexic’, proving that not only can we write, but that our dyslexia makes us better story practitioners!
