URBAN-15’s Mega Corazon Poetry Marathon premieres at urban15.org/live-stream on Thursday, April 16 at 7pm CST. The 2026 marathon will feature 19 poets, each reading six poems in celebration of the United States’ 250th anniversary and in observance of the First Amendment of the Constitution. The winner of the Mega Corazón Poetry Marathon will be determined by an online voting process at urban15.org. The poet with the most votes received will be awarded the $500 “Gregg Barrios Precious Words Prize.” Previous winners of this award include Amalia Ortiz, Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson, and Jessica Tilton.

The Mega Corazón Poetry Marathon was conceptualized in 2014 by URBAN-15 in collaboration with Inaugural San Antonio Poet Laureate Carmen Tafolla during a production of Tafolla’s “San Antonio, Mi Pueblo.” The participating poets of that production became the backbone of the now yearly Mega Corazón. This online tour-de-force highlights the works of some of Texas’ best performance poets, ranging from local legends such as Anthony “The Poet” and Jessica Tilton, all the way to state-wide recognized voices from the likes of Octavio Quintanilla and Eddie Vega.
Mega Corazón will be formatted as a playlist of individual poems in an extended 24-hour loop, featuring 19 poets and over 100 poems. URBAN-15 anticipates a global viewership of over 2,000 individuals around the globe, helping to propel Mega Corazón’s mission to provide free and easy access to local poetic voices for poetry lovers worldwide.

The 2026 Mega Corazón Poets Are:
Amalia Ortiz, Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson, Anthony “The Poet” Flores, Carmen Tafolla, Don Mathis, Eddie Vega, Eduardo Garza, Frances Treviño Santos, Jennifer Yañez-Alaniz, Jessica Tilton “Tiltonica”, Jim LaVilla-Havelin, John Phillip Santos, Johnny Rivers “Space Dragon”, Marisol Cortez, Naomi Shihab Nye, Natalia Treviño, Octavio Quintanilla, Rohn Bayes, Tomas Roque

The show opens March 22, 2026 through May 27, 2026, and presents creative pinhole portraits of San Antonio Artist immersed in their artform.

The opening exhibit of Eric O’Connell’s pinhole photography invites viewers into a living moment where time, movement, and memory converge. Through long exposures that compress minutes into a single frame, O’Connell reveals portraits that are both sharp and softly obscured, capturing not just a subject’s image but the interaction, motion, and atmosphere surrounding them.

Ghostly blurs, shifting shadows, and layered spaces create a sense of transparency and connection, allowing creativity, place, and presence to merge into one unified view. This exhibit asks audiences to slow down and consider the fleeting, often overlooked relationships between time, the artist, and the world they inhabit.

As the Edwards Aquifer Authority (EAA) celebrates 30 years of stewardship on June 28th, we invite residents, students, businesses, and organizations from Atascosa, Bexar, Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe, Hays, Medina, and Uvalde counties to help us look to the future by showcasing how you're managing the drought. Whether you're collecting rainwater, composting, using drip irrigation, or embracing native plants—we want to see it!

Winning photos will be featured in the 2027 EAA Calendar, celebrating innovation, resilience, and the community’s shared commitment to protecting the aquifer.

Edwards Aquifer Authority is a Texan by Nature conservation partner.
