Shaun Hunter, Calgary Public Library’s Historian in Residence, is presenting a talk on July 29. You need only your Library Card to register.
Don’t miss reading Shaun’s article BY CLICKING HERE. Especially interesting is a literary map, where you can find photos and stories for each site.
May I suggest finding a comfortable lawn chair, a shady spot and something cool to sip, as you settle in?
CLICK HERE for Bill Brooks’ enthusiastic article about this fundraising event for the Lougheed House in September. The keynote speech was by author Shaun Hunter, who highlighted three women authors in Calgary’s past.
Although we missed this luncheon, the Lougheed House, with Shaun Hunter (author of Calgary Through the Eyes of Writers,) will host a 2020 exhibition beginning January 23 called Literati: Calgary’s Early Writers.
Mark your new calendars!
