Event Details

Carole Boston Weatherford and Jeffery Weatherford -- the author and illustrator of this year's One Maryland One Book  selection, KIN: Rooted in Hope -- will appear at Chesapeake College's Todd Performing Arts Center at 6:00 p.m.  The event is free and open to the public.  No reservations required. It will feature an author/illustrator talk, followed by a reception and book signing.  Attendees will also have an opportunity to view an exhibit of Jeffery Weatherford's artwork from the book.  

Selected by Maryland Humanities, KIN: Rooted in Hope is a powerful blend of art, poetry, and the personal history of one of the founding families on Maryland's Eastern Shore. As Weatherford writes, "Names and dates form the roots and branches of a family tree, stories are the foliage that brings the past to life. KIN: Rooted in Hope is an affirmation that for everyone, knowing your history is generational wealth."

Free transportation is available for this event.

Bus capacity is limited to 47 - please register only if you require transportation.
