2008 Events Rewind
Posted by wastatelib on June 9, 2008
Our 2007-2008 Evening Events wrapped up in an extremely satisfying way on May 22 when Washington Reads authors Jess Walter (Citizen Vince) and Jim Lynch (The Highest Tide) met up at the State Library to speak about their friendship and lives as writers. Jess and Jim regaled the audience with readings from the works and stories about how their shared journalism experience influenced their writing. The small size of the audience also allowed them to take questions and give hints about which projects might be next for this Award Winning duo. What a great experience for everyone involved!
Our Brownbag series of Events also wrapped up on May 29 when the ladies of the Conservation Kitchen returned to demonstrate more economical and effective conservation strategies. We’ve uploaded some pictures of Marcea’s creation of a paperback book cover so you can see her at work. More information on this series can be found on our Handouts page.
Pictures from both events can be found on Flickr. Thanks to everyone who made this years events – from Lucia Perillo to Jim and Jess and everyone in between – so very successful. See you next year!
