During lockdown in 2020, we continued the celebration of Clarice Lispector's centennial with weekly online readings
​
​
We had the honor and the privilege to have a very supportive and engaged community to help us to keep us going during lockdown times. To continue our mission of presenting Brazilian culture to performing arts and to help lift the spirits we created the Happy Hour Online with readings of texts by Clarice Lispector celebrating her centennial. In total, we hosted 33 events over Zoom on Wednesday nights and served over 500 participants.
​
We want to send our gratitude to everyone who joined us in this new endeavor and special thanks to all the amazing artists who read with us:
