About this Event

Sandra Cisneros — one of the most celebrated and enduring voices in American literature — joins us for an intimate moderated conversation on belonging, storytelling, and a lifetime of writing toward home.

Her work has long given voice to lives on the margins — and revealed the profound richness at their core, and this conversation offers a rare opportunity for reflection on how stories shape the way we understand ourselves — and each other — as Americans.

Cisneros will appear virtually, in live conversation with moderator IfeMichelle Gardin of Kulturally Lit and an in-person audience at the New Haven Museum, for what promises to be an unforgettable close to the day.
