Ithaca City of Asylum board members Athena Kirk and Bethany Dixon will discuss survival, migration, and displacement in a “Virtual Community Conversation” on Wednesday, September 1, 5-6 p.m. The event is part of An Odyssey, a coproduction of the Hangar Theatre and The Cherry Arts directed by Samuel Buggeln. Dramaturg Aoise Stratford will moderate.

Athena Kirk is an assistant professor of classics at Cornell who studies the intersections between literature and epigraphy and the material quality of ancient texts. Bethany Dixon is a writer, baker, and pianist who writes about women in ancient Greek literature.

The presentation is free and open to the public. For more information or to register, visit The Cherry Arts Facebook page. Click here to buy tickets to An Odyssey.

What is ICOA?

ICOA provides refuge in Ithaca, New York, for writers and artists whose works are suppressed, whose lives are threatened, whose cultures are vanishing, and whose languages are endangered. We also advocate for human rights and freedom of expression. ICOA is an all-volunteer project of the Center for Transformative Action and a member of the International Cities of Refuge Network.

How can I help?

You can attend our events, provide free or discounted services for our guests, or volunteer to join our board. But the simplest way to help is to make a tax-deductible donation! It's fast and easy to give online, or you can write a check payable to the Center for Transformative Action and mail it to Center for Transformative Action, P.O. Box 760, Ithaca, NY 14851. Make sure to write "ICOA" on the memo line.
