Happy Birthday, Houston! The City of Houston was founded by the Allen brothers on August 30, 1836, and today marks the city’s 187th birthday. To celebrate, 2022-2023 Houston Youth Poet Laureate Ariana Lee has composed a short-form poem entitled “For the H.” #Houston #HTown #HoustonYouthPoetLaureate #HoustonMOCA #HouMOCA #HoustonPublicLibrary #ILoveHPL #WITS #WITSHouston
