Mutanabbi Street: An Exhibition of Broadsides
Fri Oct 19 - Fri Nov 21
   

On March 5th, 2007, more than 30 people were killed when a car bomb was exploded on Mutanabbi Street, an old and established street for bookselling in the heart of Baghdad's literary and intellectual community. To protest the bombing, the Mutanabbi Street Coalition, a group started by San Francisco poet and bookseller Beau Beausoleil, is organizing two readings and has invited letterpress printers to produce broadsides, which will be on exhibition at the Center.
