One Book, Many Communities
Beginning in March we are participating in the One Book....Many Communities book read. Our chosen book is The Widows by Jess Montgomery, a local author. With this in mind, we are doing a number of adult activities dealing with Appalachia and coal mining. We are having a discussion on the book, Mountain dulcimer performance, a movie about music of the area, an Appalachian dinner, a rag rug demonstration, a discussion of living in the hills, and construction of a rag doll. Times and date will come shortly.
