On May 6th, we will be hosting a poetry reading in partnership with the Brooklyn Museum, featuring poets Kiran Bath, Wo Chan, Hazem Fahmy, and Elmo Tumbokon. Each poet will read selections from original works exploring themes of migration, identity, and labor, as well as the broader theme of liberation for Asian diasporas invoked in the works of poet and painter Oscar yi Hou.
This in-person event will be held on Saturday, May 6th from 5:30–7:00 PM ET in the Stephanie and Tim Ingrassia Gallery of Contemporary Art, on the 4th Floor of the Brooklyn Museum, 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11238. This reading is open to the public with limited seating and is first come, first served, but RSVP is required via link (RSVPs will be available starting Friday, April 21st).
