Bushwick Book Club – The Art of Racing in the Rain

Sponsored by Kevin Harrang

Experience a one-of-a-kind evening where literature and original music come together. Bushwick Book Club Seattle and KPCU present a present a creative twist on an author series: a live performance of brand-new songs inspired directly from the book’s pages. Authors will join musicians onstage to discuss their work, their creative process, and the music it inspired. The audience is invited to take part in a moderated Q&A discussion as part of the event.

This event can be enjoyed without reading the book, but if you’d like to read the story before seeing the show, check out your favorite local bookstore or library!

The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein
The Art of Racing in the Rain is a heartfelt story about love, loyalty, and the unbreakable connection between a dog and his human. Told through the soulful perspective of Enzo, it follows a family’s joys and heartbreaks while celebrating the everyday courage it takes to weather life’s storms. At its core, the book is about hope, resilience, and the belief that with patience, compassion, and a little faith, we can all learn to “race in the rain” and find our way forward.

What is Bushwick Book Club?
The Bushwick Book Club Seattle is a group of musicians dedicated to sharing our combined passion for both music and reading with the Seattle community and beyond. With each performance, a book is chosen which is read by our talented Bushwick artists who then write original music inspired by the book they just read. The audience is encouraged to read the featured book and participate in the events as well. By producing these unique, one-of-a-kind musical literary events, we hope to increase awareness in literature and songwriting, while at the same time reminding people (young and old) that reading can and should be a regular part of their daily lives.
