# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Village Voices
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 06 Dec, 2025 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Inspired by the creative legacy of the Brockman Gallery and the vibrant cultural hub of Leimert Park Village, VPAM presents an afternoon of poetry and close engagement with the exhibition.

The program will begin with an ekphrastic poetry workshop, where poet Rebecca Gonzales will guide participants in writing poems inspired by artworks on view. Using observation and creative prompts, participants will explore how color, form, shape, and gesture can be translated into poetic expression. These original writings will become part of the body of community poetry gathered throughout the exhibition and showcased online as a record of public reflection and response.

Afterwards, the gallery will transform into a stage for a live in-gallery poetry reading, inviting participants to shift from creators to listeners as they experience new work by a powerful lineup of Black and Latinx poets, including Tongo Eisen-Martin, Sara Borjas, Joseph Rios, Corey "BessKepp" Cofer, and V. Kali, each presenting original poems developed in response to the exhibition. Their readings will reflect on identity, cultural memory, and the role of art in building shared understanding across communities.
