Bite-sized breakfast chats! On Thursdays at 10am, The Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab (WPHL) is in conversation with cultural figures in Miami, across the nation, and around the globe to discuss how they are coping, creating, and projecting their futures. After taking in a 10-minute live interview over your morning mug, join a Q&A to have your pressing questions answered by thought leaders who are adapting the arts experience for the COVID-19 era.

In this Miami Book Fair edition, FIU's director of Humanities Edge, Ana Menéndez, speaks with Lissette Mendez, director of programs for the fair at Miami Dade College, about the many ways institutions are confronting this global pandemic, adapting for online engagement, and addressing resource issues.

Organized by The Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab.
