We will be installing a plaque to commemorate the Beat Generation at a building where Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs lived early in their career. The two, along with occasional visitor Jack Kerouac, formed the nucleus of this influential post-war countercultural movement. We will hear excerpts from their work and a discussion of the importance of the Beat Generation and of these authors’ early work.

More details and updates to come. Register today to secure you spot!
