Jill’s work has been featured in multiple gallery and museum exhibitions as well as winning the City of Baltimore Mayor’s Individual Artist Award (now called the Independent Artist Award) and the 2023-2024 Municipal Art Society of Baltimore City Travel Artist Prize.

Fresh Talk: Photography and Advocacy

Filmmaker Kristen Lovell and photographer Samantha Box will discuss the power of film and photography to amplify the stories of marginalized communities.

Much of the film’s perspective and emotional depth comes from Box’s evocative photographs, which played a crucial role in shaping the visual narrative.

Naomi Shihab Nye and Marion Winik: I KNOW ABOUT A THOUSAND THINGS
Friday, January 31 :: 6-7:30pm
@ Bird in Hand

Bird in Hand is honored to welcome beloved poet Naomi Shihab Nye, and Baltimore’s own Marion Winik in an event for their co-edited volume I Know About a Thousand Thins: The Writings of Ann Alejandro of Uvalde, Texas.

This volume is both a work of high intellect and a work of deep love, created in memory of a shared correspondent: Ann Alejandro. Struggling for 30 years with chronic illness at her ranch outside Uvalde, Texas, Ann Alejandro was a writer of transporting natural talent and prolificity. Though she would have loved to be widely read and appreciated, she was too modest to scale the walls of the publishing world. Thus her chosen form was the letter and her audience close friends and family, including Naomi Nye and Marion Winik. For decades, her often lengthy missives continued to delight her correspondents, blending observation, storytelling, humor, praise, and accounts of her deep attachment to the land and animals that surrounded her in the rural Southwest.

Before Ann’s death in 2019 at the age of 64, Naomi and Marion promised her they would pull together a book from thousands of pages left in their care. They selected the very best of Ann Alejandro, added commentary, and organized the material into chapters with titles like Faith, Motherhood, Land, Snakes, Pain, and Love.

The volume is an extraordinary collection of writing put together by two longtime literary friends in tribute to a third. It includes an introduction by Nye and and an afterword by Winik, as well as a photo gallery of Ann’s life. Emma Snyder, owner of Bird in Hand Coffee & Books and the Ivy Bookshop, will join the co-editors in conversation.
