Smithsonian Events - One Time

The National Portrait Gallery and the DC Public Library would like to invite you to a virtual conversation about immigrant families, identity and storytelling. Join us as we analyze David Levine’s portrait of Pulitzer Prize winner Jhumpa Lahiri from the new exhibition “Her Story: A Century of Women Writers,” and discuss the related book Good Talk: A Memoir in Conversations by Mira Jacob. Participants are encouraged to explore the virtual exhibition before the event. DCPL cardholders can access Good Talk online. The Zoom link will be emailed to registered participants 24–48 hours in advance of the program. Please only register for yourself. We will only allow participants into the meeting if their name (and email address) is on the registration list. For questions, or to request accommodations such as an ASL interpreter or captioning, please email NPGAccess@si.edu at least one week prior to the program. Free—Registration required.
