Join students, faculty, and staff as they read their own original and their favorite prose, song, and poetry about the struggle and the beauty of living in a democratic society. We will end the session with a short prompt and viewing of a work from the LUAG collection to spark insight, ideas, and action about activism, citizenship, and democracy. This program is offered in partnership with Lehigh University Art Galleries, the Lehigh University Libraries, and the Creative Writing Program.
Featured readers include Amaya Apolinario '23, Eve Freed '21 and Sara Boyd '21.
