The People of Pompeii

The People of Pompeii

Aug 1 - Oct 4, 2026

Fires have come before. More will come again. And still, people stay, for love of place, for their children, for the idea of community.

Fast, biting, and wickedly observant, The People of Pompeii asks what “home” really means—and whether we are willing to do the work it takes to build it together, before the next fire comes.
