A.K. "Mimi" Allin, the Poetess at Green Lake, curates poetry-infused "instigations" in SAM’s downtown galleries. This evening features 100 poets on the escalator, in the galleries, at the balconies, draped over the grand staircase, whispering poems, creating impasses, here and there, in various parts of the museum, over the course of an hour. Whispers will be broadcast to the main lobby and heard locally by those wandering the museum.
Hosted by everyone from spoken word poets to literary figures, these evenings of words as art are at once intimate and engaging.
Free with museum admission.
SAM Word meets in the Brotman Forum.
