Smack Dab open mic featuring William Benemann
hosted by Larry-bob Roberts and Kirk Read
William Benemann is a freelance historian whose focus is on the history of gay men in America in the early nineteenth century. He is the archivist for the School of Law at the University of California, Berkeley, as well as an adjunct curator at the Bancroft Library, where he is responsible for the Sexuality and Gender Collection. His books include A Year of Mud and Gold: San Francisco in Letters and Diaries, 1849-1850; Male-Male Intimacy in Early America; and Men In Eden: William Drummond Stewart and Same-Sex Desire in the Rocky Mountain Fur Trade.
Our monthly open mic night, Smack Dab, is all ages, all genders, all the time, and free.
If you'd like to perform at the open mic, please come beginning at 7:30pm and bring five minutes of whatever you want to share. Musicians: one song. Prose writers: that's about two and a half double spaced pages of prose. We’re the friendliest open mic you’ll find but we pay attention to time so that nobody accumulates further open mic-related PTSD.
Presented by Army of Lovers, a project of the Queer Cultural Center with support from the San Francisco Arts Commission, Zellerbach Family Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts and the California Arts Council.
