- **Event Description**: Member of the APLA Health Writers Workshop read poetry and personal narrative.About this EventJoin the APLA Health Writers Workshop for an evening of poetry and personal narrative centering older adults living with HIV, whose voices continue to shape our cultural memory and our present moment. Spanning decades of experience—from the early years of the epidemic to today’s shifting political landscape—these writers reflect on survival, friendship, stigma, love, aging, and the complicated gift of time. Their work resists erasure and honors the lives that carried them forward, offering testimony that is intimate, incisive, and often unexpectedly joyful. Lived history meets urgent now. “Still here” is both a fact and a form of resistance.About the group:The APLA Health Writers Group has been running in various forms since 1989, serving HIV+ writers and their allies and helping to document these important stories. The current iteration was initiated in 2021 by West Hollywood Poet Laureate Brian Sonia-Wallace. It has been recognized by the City of West Hollywood, opened for the new AIDS Memorial, and receives ongoing support from the City of Los Angeles.
