||| FROM SAM GAILEY for ORCAS ISLAND LIBRARY |||
This Friday, Feb. 21st, at 6 pm, please join writers Edee Kulper and John Ashenhurst as they discuss their process of writing memoirs during their time in the San Juan Islands. They will also explore the journals of Rachel Adams, a Crane and Orcas Islander who kept a daily journal for thirty years chronicling daily life.
The Library is happily partnering with the Orcas Island Historical Museums on this program. Special thanks also to the Office of the Secretary of State, through the Washington State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services, for making it possible to digitize Rachel Adams’ journals.
After the presentation, the library will stay open from 7 – 9 pm for attendees to embrace a 2-hour memoir writing session. We hope to see you Friday night!
