About this plan
The Venecia Public Library opens its doors for a Literary Cafe dedicated to Alvaro Mutis, titled "The Gaviero's Gaze." It is a gathering to read the poet aloud, share passages that moved attendees, and let the work turn the everyday into a question.
Mutis wrote with the idea that literature is a trip with no return. His rivers, ports, and characters live like their own territory, and this space invites you to walk through it together. You can bring a text of his that marked you, or arrive without reading anything and let the group's voice surprise you.
The activity is free and part of BibloRed's cultural programming. To confirm the time, date, and session tips, check the source page.
