Event Details
The Lincoln Penny Story Hour on June 7th at 1pm will feature Katie Campbell, they grew up in the South Bend area and is thrilled to once again call it home. Katie attended the University of Notre Dame and received a Bachelor of Arts in English, with a minor in Gender Studies and a concentration in Creative Writing. Their senior thesis was a narrative poetry collection called wanderchild that explored themes of family, relationships, and personal identity through a dark and beautiful forest and a bright and terrifying castle. They currently work in the marketing department at the University of Notre Dame Press, and their favorite books to promote are the poetry collections
Katie will read Neither by Airlie Anderson. This is an ALL-AGES story hour, meaning all are welcome to come experience this moving, incredibly important book.
This is open and free to the general public but registration requested.
The LPSH is not a fundraiser, it’s a consciousness raiser! Ruthmere invites a member of the community to read an age-appropriate children’s book to children and their families. But this is a story hour with a specific purpose. These stories are reflections of each reader’s distinct background, and communicate the values of diversity, unity and liberty.
Every child receives a Lincoln Penny souvenir in a keepsake jacket as a reminder of why this experience is important.
This LPSH Event Sponsor is Centier Bank.
