Patti Smith's Seventh Heaven read aloud (by you) to the unknown poets in the pauper grounds of Oakwood Cemetery Annex, Austin

Includes a signed first edition of Seventh Heaven (1972), Patti Smith’s first poetry book, along with documentation of the story of her signing it, all of which you’ll get to keep. This event involves you (and a couple of your friends if you want) sitting among the unmarked graves of Austin’s Oakwood Cemetery Annex, in a section set aside for those with no means to pay for their burials. There, you’ll read to them Patti Smith’s Seventh Heaven to be a companion to the dead there and bring a little unexpected life to those in that part of the graveyard.
