Join us in the Garden for a Sunday morning reading with writers, David Grundy, poet and author of A Black Arts Poetry Machine: Amiri Baraka and the Umbra Poets,  and Hugh Ryan curator and author of The Women’s House of Detention: A Queer History of a Forgotten Prison. Dive into the impetus behind the work and gain insight into their practices as the two discuss their inspirations and share excerpts from their current work in process. Explore two different genres as David reads from his poetry in process, and Hugh reads from his memoir-in-essays currently underway. A Q&A with those in attendance will take place after the discussion.

This reading has been programmed as part of David and Hugh’s 2024 residency at The Church. For a full line-up and schedule for our upcoming artists-in-residence.
