::VBB's mission is to cross borders, sustain dialogue and incite social justice through art::

 “VBB is a place to be, a place to hear, a much-needed sanctuary for artists' expressions, for the evolution of consciousness-a sanctuary for the collective.”
Poet Loueva Smith

Voices Breaking Boundaries (VBB) is a grassroots nonprofit arts organization open to artists, individuals and organizations from a multitude of perspectives, backgrounds and countries. From a humble start in 2000 as a grassroots literary collective visualized by Sehba Sarwar who invited four diverse women poets and writers to join her, VBB now produces: performances in different parts of Houston, publishes art catalogues, and offers arts workshops for youth and adults.
