About this Event

Inspired by Saeed Jones and Maggie Smith’s conversations in the wake of the 2024 election, The People’s Project is a liberatory anthology on what we—individually and collectively—can hold onto, and what we can work towards. In times of difficulty, with a government working against its own people, we must turn to our friends and loved ones to provide context, language, energy, and hope: from know-your-place aggression to crip time as a way forward, from finding strength in nature to how trans people provide a guide for the future, and how hope has everything to do with survival. Join Saeed and Maggie in community at the historic Great Star Theater alongside local anthology contributors Abi Maxwell, sam sax, Randall Mann, and Jill Damatac. Doors at 7:00pm. Pay what you can to guarantee a seat; FREE to walk- ups (space depending)
