Contribute your own barbaric yawp to the 21st-annual marathon of Walt Whitman’s Song of Myself. Organized by the Walt Whitman Initiative and led by Karen Karbiener, this beloved New York institution is back in person—surrounded by spectacular views.

Volunteer readers recite the 52 sections of Song of Myself, often personalizing their selection with an interpretation through song, dance, translation into different languages, musical accompaniment, or other original means.

Find it at the Granite Prospect, Pier 1.
