On Saturday, April 29, 2017, the Gray Loft Gallery presented an afternoon of music, poetry and performance, created and directed by performance artist, Minoo Hamzavi.
This performance was in response to our current political climate. Poetry was read in a variety of languages to show support and solidarity, as well as to celebrate the diversity of our nation.
Hamzavi performed a short piece she created for the event, "The America That I Love”. Her performance was preceded by the readings of Lynn Adler, Steve Nakashima and Bella Warda with a performance by flautist, Claire Lavery. Eleonore Hockabnout was scheduled to perform as well but could not attend so a video installation by her was used.
