2018 LITERACYWORKS LECTURE SERIES
LITERACYWORKS & COPPERFIELD’S BOOKS PRESENTS GREG SARRIS
Event date: Sun, May 6, 2018 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM PDT
How a Mountain Was Made: Stories
Petaluma - In sixteen interconnected original stories, award-winning author Greg Sarris takes us through a world which blooms bright with poppies, lupines, and clover; where songs have the power to enchant and rain is a beautiful woman who keeps people's memories in stones. Inspired by traditional Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo creation tales, these stories are timeless in their wisdom and beauty.
This series is a fundraiser for Literacyworks Center, a project that assists underserved, low-income, low-literacy adult students and their families with maneuvering and solving the educational, logistical and personal challenges they face to stay in school or succeed at work.
