About

Myth City is a five part podcast by Houston Youth Poet Laureate, Jackson Neal, that asks writers and storytellers to conjure the ”mythologies” that inform their work and life in Houston. Touching on themes of race, gender, family, and poetry, these episodes celebrate Houston’s rich cultural histories. The Myth City podcast was funded in part by the City of Houston through the Houston Arts Alliance Let Creativity Happen grant. The Youth Poet Laureate program is an initiative of Writers in the Schools, Houston Mayor's Office of Cultural Affairs, and Houston Public Library.
