Event Details

Free performances of plays and stories created by our neighbors at Father Joe's Villages, including a performance titled Library Lost and Found inspired by the Central Library. 

These shared stories offer a window into incredible journeys of those who have experienced homelessness and faced it with strength, resilience, and humor. 

The tales are told in the spirit of Father Joe's Villages' CREED--highlighting Compassion, Respect, Empathy, Empowerment and Dignity. 

Stay after the performances for a panel discussion around the theme "We Are Neighbors". 

This collaborative endeavor, supported by Father Joe’s Villages, Playwrights Project, and San Diego Central Library, is made possible by the Humanities for All Project grant from California Humanities. Guided by Humanities Advisor Frank Kensaku Saragosa, a PEN America literary award winner with firsthand experience of homelessness in San Diego, this initiative aims to shed light on the human aspect of the homelessness crisis.
