This World AIDS Day (Dec 1) in NYC, HIV+ longterm survivor activist Sean McKenna, Tim Murphy (HIV+ journalist & author of the novel "Christodora"), HIV+ longtime East Village artist Jack Waters, Ruby Rims and Judson Memorial Church will co-present an evening of readings and performances by HIV/AIDS longterm survivors.
All are welcome, but solely people living with HIV/AIDS for 20+ years (1996 or prior) are invited to submit short performance proposals. If interested in performing, please email JudsonWAD@gmail.com with your name, age, race/ethnicity and gender identity, year diagnosed with HIV and a short description or attachment/video clip of what you would like to read or perform.
We will select a program with a priority on diversity of age, race, gender identity and performance format (fictional passage, memoir, essay, poem, song, dance piece, etc.). Open-mic time for audience members will be reserved for the final 15 minutes of the program.
A microphone and piano will be provided.
Most pieces will be limited to 5 minutes.
Please join us for this very special celebration of those who've lived and survived with HIV/AIDS the longest. (This year's World AIDS Day global theme at Judson Church is "Access Equity Rights Now.")
