Community members are invited to a Book Talk and Public Joy Mapping with Jay Pitter, Saturday, May 2, 1:00 – 3:00 at the Main Library (74 Mackenzie). Please register at liveablesudbury.org.
Jay Pitter is a Public Space Practitioner, Adjunct Urban Planning Professor, and Author. Community is at the centre of her work. Her book Black Public Joy explores Black people’s public joy histories, sacred rituals, movements, and contemporary expressions while positioning public joy as civic, cultural, and spatial infrastructure. It can be found on shelves across North America. Giveaways of some copies will be made during the event. Come explore public joy at this special event.
Hosted by Compass/Boussole/Akii-Izhinoogan & Coalition for a Liveable Sudbury, with support from Thriving African Families, Sudbury Workers Education and Advocacy Centre, Black Lives Matter Sudbury, Myths and Mirrors Community Arts, and reThink Green.
