Assert your independence at the alternative closing party for Hebrew Book Week at Jaffa Port this Saturday, June 12! Eatliz – an alternative band on the fast track to cult stature and Midnight East fave, will be performing FREE at the port, along with rock trio Electra, and The Raw Men Empire’s melancholy freak folk.
The party starts at 17:00 with music, books, and art – all free and open to the public at Jaffa Port. Stands of independent book publishers – A5, Maayan, Picnic, Plonit, HaKivun Mizrah, Andalus, ms.use and Yafa Café among others, will line the dock with their wares. Poetry videos will be shown in Warehouse 2, including Walt Whitman, Charles Simic, and T. S. Eliot.
Artist Uri Lipshitz has been creating portraits of Israeli authors over the course of several years. The collected portraits, “The Face of Literature” will be exhibited in Warehouse 2. Among the writers featured are: Yonatan Ratosh, Avot Yeshurun, S. Izhar, Sami Michael, Haim Guri, and Yoram Kaniuk.
DJ Radio Clash of EPGB will be your musical guide for the evening!
