Every Body Has a Story: A Night with Nebraska Writers Collective

Experience a powerful night of live readings by the Nebraska Writers Collective, featuring Lincoln writer Sam Lee.  Inspired by artist Zhang Huan’s 1/2 (Meat #3), which is included in our current exhibition Under The Skin, Sam Lee will explore the human body as a source of emotion and storytelling, through original poetry, short stories, and personal reflections. Whether you’re a longtime art lover or simply curious, this evening invites you to listen, reflect, and connect. Come for the art, stay for the stories, and leave with a deeper appreciation for the human experience.

Please be advised that the Under the Skin exhibition contains depictions of full/partial nudity and mature themes. Parents and guardians are encouraged to preview and assess the content to decide if it aligns with what they deem appropriate for their children.
