Virtual Winter Sojourn
- Virtual Event via Crowdcast
Omicron has forced Winter Sojourn to transition to a virtual event. Everyone is invited to join us for a FREE streaming pop-up celebration of authors and readers designed to reunite book lovers despite our pandemic pause.
In the spirit of the library's Literary Sojourn mothership event, Winter Sojourn features presentations by award-winnig authors Maaza Mengiste, Vendela Vida, Mary Roach and Jess Walter, who will individually talk about their inspiration for the stories and characters in their published works.
