17 Aug Six Famous Stories You Think You Know, but Shhh… You Really Don’t!
Back by popular demand! Join R.J. Jenkins for a series of informal, spirited, no-reading-required lectures about some very popular stories that we all *think* we know, but secretly, they’re much more complicated – and way cooler! – than we might at first realize.
This lecture series is a pARTnership between the Marion County Literacy Council and the Marion Cultural Alliance to help raise awareness of Give4Marion on September 17-18.
Please join for one, or some, or all! Prosecco will be served at all lectures. Admission is FREE, with donations to both organization’s G4M campaign much appreciated!
