Sunday, Aug 4, 2019, 2pm.
Meet at the corner of Victory Blvd & St Pauls Ave, SINY 10301.
The poet Audre Lorde made her home on Staten Island.
Staten Island OutLOUD celebrates the life and work of this pioneering poet with readings and a stroll through her neighborhood, along St Pauls Avenue.
Free. Wear comfortable shoes. Rain or shine; if it rains, we’ll meet at Victory Blvd & St Pauls Ave, but we’ll stroll to a nearby indoor venue.
If you’re interested in the poetry, but would rather skip the stroll, just join us at El Patron restaurant at 2:30pm: 520 Bay St, SINY 10304 (corner of Bay St & Sands St). Inexpensive menu!
Co-hosted by Staten Island OutLOUD and Island poet Thomas Fucaloro of NYSAI Press.
Special thanks to the Audre Lorde Estate for permission to present this afternoon’s readings of Ms. Lorde’s poetry.
