In partnership with The DreamYard Project, a Bronx-based organization dedicated to social justice through the arts, this special Juneteenth edition of Late Shift at the Guggenheim Museum will feature vibrant poetry readings, live performances, a cash bar, and more on Thursday, June 19.
The after-hours event will spotlight DreamYard’s Rad(ical) Poetry Consortium Fellows, who will activate the museum in celebration of Juneteenth through socially engaged spoken word and live performances; participating talents include Alondra Uribe, Carlina Duan, Dena Igusti, Diego Báez, Ellen Hagan, Charlotte Abotsi, e.jin, Andy Powell and more.
It all takes place among the artwork of Rashid Johnson, titled “A Poem for Deep Thinkers.”
