Kingston Frontenac Public Library is delighted to announce the latest Telling Your Story Showcase: Writings from the Seniors' Writing Workshop. Readings will be given by participants from the five-week memoir-writing workshop led by award-winning author Jean Rae Baxter this October in Sharbot Lake. Having honed their stories during that process, these writers will now be sharing excerpts from the memoirs and family histories they created during the workshops.
"It's impressive what a wide range of stories these seniors have to share," says Programming and Outreach Librarian Anne Hall. "Each one is a powerful episode from a life well lived. I think they'll be of interest to everyone, not just to friends and family of the participants."
This event will take place in St Andrew’s Anglican Church hall, at 1028 Elizabeth Street in Sharbot Lake, on Tuesday, November 19, at 2 p.m. Admission is free to all adults on a first-come, first-served basis — no registration is required.
