Memorial for a Disease – COVID: Dialogues, Drama & Documentaries

Memorial for a Disease by the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences will focus on the guiding question: How can academics react to a collective trauma which brought about a global tragedy of unparalleled proportion? One way is to engage in a series of reflections and contemplation after the long period of isolation. Cities such as New York City, Los Angeles, and Chicago have all created memorials to honor those who have lost their lives due to the COVID-19 virus. Here in Gainesville, we shall remember those who are gone and recall what is left to be done.

Come celebrate life.

Artists, poets, dancers and storytellers are welcome to share. If you would like to participate, then please contact Dr. Kole Odutola at kodutola@ufl.edu.

Sponsored by the College of the Arts Creative B Summer Program in partnership with the Office of the Provost.
