We encourage you to come in person to take this exciting opportunity to meet the new officers and committee members while receiving the latest updates. \n  \nAs part of our evening program\, we are pleased to welcome Hildegard E. Keller\, who will present an engaging talk on Alfonsina Storni. A Ticinese emigrant to Argentina\, Storni emerged as one of the leading voices in modernist Latin American literature. Her life and work inspired\, amongst other things\, the renowned song “Alfonsina y el Mar\,” beautifully interpreted by Catalan singer Rosalía in this video. \n  \nWe hope you’ll be able to then join us for an “aperitivo” and “maccheronata”. If you are keen to lend a hand on the evening\, please contact Karin to find out about volunteering opportunities. More details in the booking form. \n\n \n\nHildegard E. Keller\, a Swiss-born author\, scholar\, and filmmaker\, has made significant contributions through her documentaries\, novels\, and performances. She uniquely revives historical figures like Alfonsina Storni and Hannah Arendt\, key to the cultural heritage of Italian-speaking Switzerland. \n  \nWith extensive experience as a literary critic on Swiss TV she has been active as a live storyteller in the streets of Zurich (Criminal Zurich). From 2008 to 2017\, she was a professor in Bloomington\, Indiana\, and held guest professorships in Europe and the Americas. Currently\, she is an Artist in Residence in London\, supported by the Landis & Gyr Foundation\, and recently received the International Creative Media Award for her work on Alfonsinsa’s legacy. \n  \n \n
