LIVEWIRES Coffee & More: My Name: My Identity Memoir Writing Workshop

To celebrate the power of names in The Big Read book The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri we've invited popular professor of English and poet Nancy Genevieve Kohl to help explore the history & meaning of your name in this memoir workshop. No registration is needed.

The Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts, designed to revitalize the role of literature in American culture and to encourage citizens to read for pleasure and enlightenment. The NEA presents The Big Read in partnership with Arts Midwest.
