A special presentation by iconic artist, performer, and author Patti Smith to coincide with the release of her new book Devotion. Two companion essays and a beautifully crafted tale about a tragic young skater comprise this deeply personal look into the alchemy of Smith's creative process.

Join us as Patti presents Devotion beneath the beautiful, vaulted ceilings of St. Ann's!
