Event Schedule
Wednesday, September 10 at 7:00 p.m. – Stacey Abrams
“Coded Justice” follows Abram's character Avery Keene down a dark rabbit hole into the breathtaking—and dangerously evolving—world of AI in the medical industry.
“Will There Ever Be Another You” is the brain-shredding, phosphorescent story of one woman’s dissolution and her attempt to create a new way of thinking, as well as a profound investigation into what keeps us alive in times of unprecedented disorientation and loss.
“Bunheads, Act 2: The Dance of Courage” will be an inspiration to ballet and dance lovers everywhere, and to anyone who has ever suffered a setback or had a dream to defend.
“How About Now” is a bold and compassionate collection of poems that confronts the march of time in a shifting world. With her trademark candor and curiosity, Baer explores what it means to grow older, to release children into the wildness of their own lives, and to reclaim the ever-evolving self.
