Passing Through: An Evening of Poems and Music inspired by, loved by, and left behind by Leonard CohenFRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8th, Cafe Du Nord - Doors 7 pm/Show 7:30 pm - $28
The first night (Friday, November 8th) of the upcoming 2024 San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival, will feature poets and musicians presenting words and music, inspired by, loved by, and left behind by Leonard Cohen (1934-2016), the renown Canadian singer, songwriter.
Leonard Cohen was a lover of literature, poetry, and music from a young age, and from that love came his own powerful works that have inspired so many. We will explore the works that Leonard admired and discussed in interviews and with friends.
Accomplished San Francisco Bay Area poets will present original work inspired and/or written by Leonard Cohen in a 15-minute performance piece. Poets are invited to reference Cohen as appropriate and/or to present their own work that may connect with, or be inspired by Cohen’s literature, poetry, spirit and/or music.

Genny Lim (SF Poet Laureate)
