K-Lit: A Conversation with Korean-American Authors on the K-Zeitgeist

In partnership with Lincoln Center, PEN America convenes a roster of leading NYC-based Korean-American writers and artists for a conversation exploring what fuels their creative practice, squaring their relationship with South Korea’s growing global cultural influence, and the role that Korean-American traditions and history have on their body of work. The discussion will also examine the ways in which the Korean diaspora and the broader Asian-American community have responded to the current wave of anti-Asian-American racism and violence. Over the last 100 years, PEN America has mobilized countless writers, activists, and public intellectuals in the fight to defend free expression and the open exchange of ideas. A roster of speakers and attendees for this event will be announced shortly.

This event is FREE and General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! For more information, visit https://lincolncenter.org/series/summer-for-the-city/pen-presents-k-lit.
