Montalvo Arts Center Presents: A Writer’s Life – An Intimate Conversation with Jeff Chang + Garrett Hongo
Saratoga, CA 95071-0158 United States
Two celebrated authors of our time who have recently released their highly anticipated new books appear together at Montalvo for an unforgettable intergenerational conversation. Jeff Chang (2023 Fellow), author of Water, Mirror, Echo; Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop; and We Gon’ Be Alright, and Garrett Hongo (2015 Fellow), author of Ocean of Clouds: Poems; Volcano; and The Perfect Sound, discuss and share their thoughts on a wide range of topics that inspire them in their personal life and work including Bruce Lee, music, their Hawaiian ancestry, and what coming of age in California looked like for each of them.
Join us for a powerful conversation where these literary masters will reveal how personal heritage shapes universal human experiences.
There will be a short Q&A following the conversation. Water, Mirror, Echo and Ocean of Clouds: Poems will be available for purchase. The authors will do a meet and greet and book signings in the Project Space Gallery.
