One Book, One Philadelphia Celebration – Apr 27

Posted by Free Library of Philadelphia on April 5, 2022

To officially start the 20th annual program season of One Book, One Philadelphia, join us for a conversation between 2022 featured authors Quiara Alegría Hudes and Lilliam Rivera. Hudes is the author of My Broken Language, the 2022 One Book featured title, and Rivera is the author of Never Look Back, the 2022 One Book youth companion title.

After their discussion, students from the Curtis Institute of Music will perform an original work of music inspired by My Broken Language.

This event will take place in person at the Parkway Central Library with limited seating available. Masking is mandatory and social distancing will be in place. The event will also be livestreamed. A book signing with both authors will follow the event, and books will be available for sale at the Library from Taller Puertorriqueño.
