Raise your hand if you have read Barbara Kingsolver’s Animal, Vegetable, Miracle. For those of you who did not raise your hand, never fear. Just watch this video and Emmett Montgomery will drop a Barbara Kingsolver sized nugget of knowledge on you — which will quickly bring you up to speed on the happenings of the book.
The next Bushwick event is happening soon. Very very soon.
On May 3rd at Town Hall Seattle we are proud to present original music inspired by Barbara Kingsolver’s Animal Vegetable Miracle.
Feast your eyes on the official poster for the event, designed by Travis Young.
