Join the MFA and St. Petersburg Poet Laureate Denzel Johnson-Green for an afternoon of wonder and creation as Cellist Cori Lint weaves a map to new sonic worlds. As she performs her works, the audience will be given the option to write poems inspired by Lint’s six pieces and the colored lights that hang above her. Afterward, there will be a group discussion and Q&A with the musician.
This event is free and open to the public and is part of the City of St. Petersburg’s “City of Writers” program.
