There will be a memorial service for James Baker Hall on July 11 from 4-5 p.m. in Lexington’s Gratz Park. (In case of inclement weather, the event will move inside to the Jesse Stuart room of the Carnegie Center.) Afterwards, there will be a reception in the Carnegie Center, with food and drink and poetry. Folks are invited to bring along a poem to read. We hope to see you then.
The Graphic
Memoir:
Storytelling in
Pictures &
Words
Saturdays
June 27, July 25,
August 1 & 2
9 noon-2:00 pm
Specifically concentrating on autobiographical works and memoirs, this class will investigate how stories are told through graphic novels. We’ll use what we learn to tell our own stories through the juxtaposition of words and drawings. This class will deepen your knowledge of how to read and tell narratives with comic-book craft and literary technique. During breaks between sessions, reading and writing assignments will help you become comfortable with the genre.
COST: only $40
Taught by Nickole Brown
