An evening of listening to snippets of StoryCorps recordings of library customers with panel discussions with participants and other storytellers. Thomas Thorspecken sketches will be on display.
As National Medal winners, we received the honor of having StoryCorps record the stories of library customers and staff. Hear snippets of those stories that include library memories, sincere discussions on friendship, family and love - not to mention alligator wrangling - at our Listening Party, presented in conjunction with Orange County Regional History Center's Accidental Historian exhibit. The evening will include panel discussions with participants and exhibit viewing of Thomas Thorspecken sketches and photographs by the library's photographer that chronicle the recording days. The Listening Party is presented with the support of WMFE.
