October Reading
Howl by Allen Ginsberg

Los Angeles-based artist Sayre Gomez creates hyperrealistic paintings of the urban American landscape, the decline of late capitalism, and how hope and disappointment intertwine with the everyday. Howl, written by Allen Ginsberg and published in 1956, is a landmark poem acclaimed for its savage critique of materialism and conformity. It became a defining text of the countercultural movement of the 1950s.Free, but please RSVP. Limited capacity.
