Second Tuesday presents “Inspirations: A Yaddo Pride Event Celebrating Our LGBT Writers”
Yaddo will celebrate Pride Month with an event celebrating our LGBT writers at the Center.
“Inspirations: A Yaddo Gay Pride Event Celebrating Our LGBT Writers” will be moderated by author Allan Gurganus, who has enjoyed many working residencies at Yaddo, dating back to 1975, and who also is a Member of The Corporation of Yaddo.
Fellow former residents and writers Cris Beam and Jorge Cortinas will join Gurganus for a lively discussion about Yaddo’s past, present, and future role in the LGBT literary community, and each of the panelists will offer a reading.
