Bring AJ P.R. Into the Room.
Poetry can begin a conversation. Performance can make people feel it. A workshop can give someone the courage to find their own words.
De’Ashia Wallace is available for spoken-word performances, writing and storytelling workshops, speaking engagements, educational programs, panels, interviews, and creative community collaborations.
The goal is not simply to speak. It is to create the moment when someone in the room thinks, “I know that feeling.”

A simple booking process.
Start with the event. We can shape the engagement from there.
Share the organization, audience, location, preferred date, and type of engagement.
Let us know whether you are looking for a performance, workshop, author talk, panel, interview, or something custom.
The final program can be shaped around the audience, available time, setting, and purpose of the event.
Once the details are confirmed, the focus turns to creating an experience the audience can connect with.
Bring De’Ashia to your audience.
For performances, workshops, speaking engagements, educational programs, panels, interviews, or creative collaborations, send an inquiry with the details of what you are planning.
