Time & Date
A three-hour event, titled by a line of text in the poem “In The Same Space,” will include readings by notable poets, writers, actors, activists, civic and community leaders and performances featuring music, dance and other interpretations.
Celebrating the breadth of Cavafy’s work – his complex questions and reflections on diaspora, queerness, time, history, and memory through his exploration of the City in contrast to the State, this marathon format will serve as a many-voiced tapestry, weaving together narrative and civic identity; considering what we do within evolving communities through our inherited and shifting mythologies; and questioning what modes and methods of authorship shape our sense of place, origin, and future.
Each hour will be curated around one theme or idea prevalent in Cavafy’s work and will include ten readings or reflections on a Cavafy poem(s) for a total of 50 unique Cavafy moments.
