We will collectively explore Butler's novel in the first session at the Main Library, and in the second session (Saturday, May 17, 2:00–3:00 p.m.), to be held at the Raclin Murphy Museum, we will consider how our literary findings can be seen and experienced in Tossin's exhibition. Come ready to explore the intersections of literature, art, and social change. Register here.
