HVWC Virtual Gala

We will hold our annual benefit ​​on Friday evening, OCTOBER 30​,2020, at 7 pm, via Zoom. In line with our mission to celebrate the highest quality literature across genres we are proud to honor ​Jericho Brown (winner of the 2020 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry; Susan Choi (Winner of the 2019 National Book Award for Fiction); ​Toi Derricotte (Finalist for the 2019 National Book Award in Poetry); Katharine Holabird​ (author of the Angelina Ballerina series of Children’s Literature); and ​Leslie Jamison (Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize). They will read from their latest works and join us for live discussion that evening.

We will also hold a “live online” auction, offering items specifically attuned to what people may want and need in this challenging environment, such as cultural experiences, learning opportunities, health and sports packages (and of course fine wine!).

Reduced price tickets available for HVWC students and instructors. Buy 10 tickets to fill your “virtual table” with friends.
