World AIDS Day: Ann Magnuson + Steven Reigns

The Broad’s World AIDS Day 2022 commemoration is presented in advance of the special exhibition, Keith Haring: Art is for Everybody, which will be on view from May 27–October 8, 2023. Keith Haring, one of the many artists whose lives were cut short by AIDS-related illnesses, spent his final days focusing on AIDS activism. Actress, writer, musician, artist, and iconic denizen of the 1980s East Village art scene Ann Magnuson will speak with acclaimed poet Steven Reigns about such topics as art at the intersection of HIV/AIDS activism, HIV/AIDS in our current time, Reigns’s latest poetry collection which explores the life of a dentist falsely accused of transmitting HIV to his patients, and Club 57 and the downtown New York art scene in which Magnuson and Haring were influential players.
