Reflect on the kaleidoscopic relevance of our current BCA exhibition, Here Now: Art and Migration, with an interdisciplinary evening. Literary Intersections is a new series presenting topical writing with textual – and sometimes visual – affinities with art on view at BCA Center. Our featured poets, Sarah Audsley and Leslie Sainz, live in Vermont and wrote 2023 books tapping into histories of migration.
