What We Learned While Alone-Global Voices Speak to the Pandemic
Monday, October 23, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Event Navigation
Dayton Metro Library will host What We Learned While Alone-Global Voices Speak to the Pandemic on Monday, October 23, from 6-7 pm, in the Main Library’s Eichelberger Forum.
Three performers will use spoken word, movement, music, and digital technology to allow patrons to experience the human spirit as it was captured through the voices of original works from around the world, collected from an interactive website created by the Wick Poetry Center at Kent State University, the University of Arizona’s Poetry Center, and award-winning poet Naomi Shihab Nye.
Humor, honesty, and insight bring to life the experiences of many during the COVID-19 pandemic. The audience will also be able to interact with the program’s production by using their phones to text their own poetry lines, thus creating a community poem at the end of each performance.
This program was made possible with a grant from the Ohio Arts Council and is intended for an adult audience. Registration is not required. The Main Library is located at 215 East Third Street, Dayton, 45402. For more information, visit DaytonMetroLibrary.org or call the Library’s Ask Me Line at 937.463.2665.
