NUIT DE LA LECTURE - A NIGHT OF READING

Join us for an extraordinary cultural journey at our "Nuit de la lecture" : we explore the universal theme of "The Body" through the richness of French, Spanish, and English literature.

Complemented by the captivating melodies of Brianne Sargent jazz trio and the artistic strokes of live painting with artist Simo, this event promises an evening of cross-cultural connections and creative synergy.

Joaquin Zihuatanejo, the inaugural poet laureate of Dallas, will also be joining us to present his forthcoming poetry collection, Occupy Whiteness. It's genre-bending, highly creative, and multilingual.

Come to listen or declaim to celebrate linguistic diversity, and cultural richness!
