Author Event

We are pleased to be a host for one of this summer’s Read ME authors, Phuc Tran. He will be here Tuesday, July 19th at 7:00 pm here in the courtyard. If we are unable to use the courtyard due to weather, we will meet in the Main Reading Room and offer a zoom link for those not comfortable gathering inside.

Read ME is a statewide summer reading program offered by the Maine Humanities Council and Maine State Library that gets Maine’s adults all reading the same books. The Maine Humanities Council is a statewide non-profit that uses books, poetry, and big ideas to bring people together to discuss issues of importance. MHC programs and grants encourage critical thinking and conversations across social, economic, and cultural boundaries.

Thank you to the Maine Humanities Council for making this author event possible.
