Reanimation Library: Highland Park Branch
May 19, 7–9 pm
Branch Closing Event with Word Processor Reading by Tisa Bryant and musical performances by TONY and Pitch Like Masses
The Highland Park Branch is a temporary "spore" of the Brooklyn-based Reanimation Library. It is a collection of books that have fallen out of mainstream circulation. Outdated and discarded, they have been culled from local thrift stores, stoop sales, and throw-away piles, and are given new life as resource material for artists, writers, and other cultural archeologists.
The opening event will feature new work informed by books from the Highland Park Branch. Participating artists and performers include: Tristan Duke, Ken Ehrlich, Cayetano Ferrer, Corey Fogel, Helki Frantzen, Katie Herzog, Jibade-Khalil Huffman, Cassandra C. Jones, Les Figues Press, Rob Ray, and Sarah Simons.

The Reanimation Library: Highland Park Branch is organized by Aurora Tang and Jen Hofer in collaboration with Reanimation Library Founder Andrew Beccone and Monte Vista Projects.
