Buckham Fine Arts Project cordially invites you to the Observations, Volume 5 featuring Vivian Kao, release event celebrating the fifth Writer in Residence publication.
Join us Saturday, March 7 at Buckham Gallery!
The event starts at 2PM with a welcome by Buckham’s Executive Director Michele Leclaire. The 2024-2025 Writer In Residence, Vivian Kao, will read selections from the book, share her experience in the residency and take questions from the audience. Following the reading will be a meet and greet with the author with refreshments. Books will be available for purchase and guests are invited to have them signed.
The Buckham Fine Arts Project’s WIR program started as an outreach project in early 2021 to unite its visual art exhibitions with literary arts and Flint’s Black, Indigenous, People of Color community. The collaboration provides an opportunity for writers to engage with their interest in visual art and gain exposure for their literary work, while engaging Flint’s marginalized communities in a meaningful way. Each residency cycle culminates with the compilation of the WIR’s compositions into a publication with exhibition images and public reading.
