Freedoms Found: Writers Speak to the Art of Raymond Saunders

Poet and author Caroline M. Mar has assembled an outstanding line-up of Bay Area writers representing the diverse experiences of our region. Each has composed an original work inspired by Oakland-based artist Raymond Saunders. The featured poets and writers performing are Mar, Tongo Eisen-Martin, who is currently poet laureate of San Francisco, Tijanna O. Eaton, and Mildred Thompson.

In keeping with SVMA’s dynamic live poetry events, each writer’s performance will be paired with a local wine, to create a unique “Flight of Poets.” The wines for the evening are being poured by Lloyd Davis of Sonoma’s Corner 103, with appetizer grazing boards prepared by Cristina Topham of Spread Kitchen.

We’re thrilled to bring back this event which is always a sell-out, so reserve your seat today!
