Join us for a festive program that will include graham cracker houses, Wisconsin Dickens Carolers, and a holiday book display. The carolers will provide music history and country origins between musical selections. We will display literature that includes Charles Dickens as well as holiday stories from many cultures. All ages welcome!
Please join us for an evening of slam poetry brought to us by Charles Payne. Charles's workshop will help participants delve into crucial conversations across differences. And by doing so, participants will foster a deeper understanding of themselves. The learning objectives were designed to challenge participants to think, write, and share experiences they've had that contributed to their sense of belonging by giving participants a brave space to share their personal stories and challenging them to listen critically.
