LGNSQ - Author Talk with Ines Bellina, David Schalliol and Joerg Metzner
Event Information
About this Event
In a news landscape dominated by COVID and politics, it's becoming harder to find stories about our communities. That's why I made this book, #LGNSQ. The Logan Square Book is about vernacular architecture, street art, mom-and-pop shops and more. The stories are not on the level of breaking news, but this is the stuff that we live with every day and form our reality.
