Not-in-Kansas
|
Oct. 18
|
Betty Cassidy
and Margaret French
|
|
Sometimes thoughtful, more often hilarious stories about our sense of place. About wandering and discombobulation. About leaving home. About feeling like a foreigner. About longing for home, often to discover that we found it long ago.

Oh Sh*t
|
Jan. 17
|
Claire Nolan
and Frank Wind
|
|
These stories are so unusual or unbelievable that they must be shared. Things like this have happened to us; they’ve probably happened to you, too! Your only response to these personal stories and folktales will be, "Oh Sh*t!"

Hunger
|
Feb. 21
|
Mary Murphy
and Nancy Marie Payne
|

Anyone who has ever wanted something, really wanted it, knows that hunger doesn't only pertain to food. This afternoon, our tellers will explore the humor, longings and driving desire behind hunger.

Shenanigans
|
Mar. 14
|
Janet Carter
and Marni Gillard
|
|
Our shenanigans may tickle your funny bone or dampen your eyes. You’ll travel to the Emerald Isle and beyond, but you don’t have to be Irish to find yourself in these tales.

Bumps in the Road
|
Apr. 18
|
Lorraine Hartin-Gelardi
and Karen Pillsworth
|

Lessons we've learned along the way. Some of life's most interesting lessons are discovered by accident. Come hear stories of mothers and daughters, sons and husbands, and a plethora of cousins who have helped shape their lives. You are in for an afternoon of humorous and heart-warming tales.
