Dialogues Reading Presented by Chatham University MFA

This is a virtual only performance via our streaming channel City of Asylum @ Home

“Dialogues” is an annual event at Chatham University’s MFA program that brings together writers in conversation around socially relevant themes, and offers a platform to showcase their creative work for the public. Dialogues 2022 is themed Home.

The 2022 program features a live conversation with poets Malcolm Friend, Adriana Ramirez, & Angela Velez—writers whose work heavily centers ideas of home and identity-creation. In addition to reading their own work, our featured writers will discuss Sandra Cisneros’ The House on Mango Street, a seminal text in the exploration of home. The House on Mango Street is also Chatham University’s 2022 Big Read text.
