The Village of Arts & Humanities hosts "Who We Are, Who We Could Be"

On December 11 at 6:30pm, The Village of Arts & Humanities will host "Who We Are, Who We Could Be," a reading and conversation about who "we" are as a people, and how do "we" move forward collectively.

In these challenging times, many of us are grappling with the question of who we are as a people, as many peoples. What is this we? Who can we be, cohabiting this moment, and moving forward? Join The Village for a collective reading and what we hope will be one of many vital conversations in days to come. 

The event will feature readings by Leeway grantees Andrea Walls (ACG '14), Cynthia Dewi Oka (ACG '16), Lillian Dunn (ACG '12), Marissa Johnson-Valenzuela (ACG '12, LTA '05), and former Leeway Program Director Sham-e-Ali Nayeem. 

The event is free and open to the public. Click here for more information
