Open the Light Open Sesame: a night of poetry & translation

August 2, 2024

OpentheLight

Hugo House, 11th Avenue, Seattle, WA, USA

It's that time of the salish summer when the sunlight never seems to fade. Come hang out on the patio at Hugo House in Capitol Hill and take in some luminous language from an amazing lineup of poets. Paul Cunnigham (poet, translator, and editor of Action Books) will join us from South Bend, and he'll be joined by Jake Syersak, Josh Fomon, Cass Garison, Woogee Bae and recent Washington Book Award winner Ricardo Ruiz.
