SUMMARY:Common Threads Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Common Threads is about bringing people together to share needlework (knitting\, crocheting\, even sewing if you prefer)\, conversation\, and get to know others from our community. It is as much about the conversation as the needlework. \nJust as there will be a variety of knitting and crocheting techniques to discover\, attendees can hope to have diverse viewpoints on topics of the day to share with new friends and neighbors! \nCommon Threads is as much about the conversation as it is about the handiwork. Our topic is “What Do You Think is the Most Important Issue Today”; and everyone will have an opportunity to share what they feel is the most important topic of the day\, while we work. \nCommon Threads is NOT a political or religious discussion or a debate\, it is an opportunity for neighbors to come together to listen and learn from each other while enjoying what we have in common\, our needlework. \nALL are welcome. However\, space is limited so reservations are required.

SUMMARY:Annie Dawid – Author Talks
DESCRIPTION:Join Professor and 2024 Colorado Book Award finalist Annie Dawid at Rawlings Branch Library as she reads from and discusses her historical fiction book\, Paradise Undone: A Novel of Jonestown and answers questions from the audience. \nParadise Undone\, A Novel of Jonestown is a part real\, part imagined retelling of the tragic events that led to the biggest single loss of civilian life in the U.S. in the 20th century. On November 18\, 1978\, 909 people died in the Guyanese jungle. Published on the 45th anniversary of this tragic day\, Annie Dawid’s compelling story of Jonestown explores the tragedy through the voices of four protagonists—Marceline Baldwin Jones and three other members of the Peoples Temple. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be provided. \nThank you to our partner Pueblo City-County Library District.
