This event is conducted in Polish.

Please, join the event organized by the Greenpoint Library and the Polish and Slavic Center, featuring Patrycja Piekutowska, a renowned Polish violinist and author of the book "Przygody niemożliwe" ("Impossible Adventures"). The book is a collection of colorful, humorous, and often improbable stories that the artist experienced during 27 years of uninterrupted travel across all continents. Written with the same energy with which the author plays the violin, raises two sons, and engages in social and business activities, it promises an exciting event and a personal gift for all those who love music and travel. It is also the first book in Poland to include three hours of music, and the entire meeting will be enriched by a mini-concert.

Patrycja Piekutowska – soloist, habilitated doctor of musical arts, successful motivational speaker, and promoter of Polish culture worldwide. Over the course of her 25-year solo career, she has performed over 1,200 concerts in 41 countries, performing in prestigious concert halls such as Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, Sala São Paulo and Teatro Guaíra in Brazil, Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall in New York, and the National Center for the Performing Arts in Beijing. In South America alone, she has performed nearly 70 concerts. She lectured for 15 years at universities as an associate professor. She has recorded 12 CD albums.
