SF Moby Dick Marathon 2022
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park
(see times)
The San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, in partnership with SFMNPA and the Department of Culture and Communication, CSU Maritime Academy, will host a 24-hour Moby Dick reading marathon in the Maritime Museum.
One of America's greatest novels, Moby-Dick speaks to race and racism, sexual identity, fate and destiny, environmental degradation, power and powerlessness, madness and obsession, faith and doubt, love and friendship, and writing and imagination. It reflects and refracts society, culture, and the human condition, and so remains a powerful text full of ways to discover oneself, and one's place in the world.
Surrounded by aquatic-themed WPA murals, and overlooking the Aquatic Park Pier and Cove, a diverse crew of over 100 will add their own voices to Melville's musings, orations, and unforgettable characters.
