The Writers’ Forum is free and open to the public. It will conclude a day of public appearances by Rash as a part of the One Book, One Community program at St. Andrews Presbyterian College.
This Community Reading Program, co-sponsored by the Scotland County Memorial Library, the Storytelling Arts Center of the Southeast and the Scotland County Schools, provides a common text for students, parents and community members that will be read, studied, discussed, debated and written about in classrooms, dorm rooms, family rooms, and library reading rooms throughout the area.
“The College hopes this effort will foster a larger sense of community built around the intellectually stimulating activities of reading, writing and open discussion,” said Professor David Herr, director of the program and associate professor of History. “This effort will also draw patrons to the College and public libraries while emphasizing the life-long pleasures of reading.”
Rash will begin his official visit in the classrooms of St. Andrews before a 2:30 p.m. public reading and reception at Scotland County Memorial Library.
Next, Rash will be a book signing and discussion at the Storytelling Arts Center of the Southeast between 4:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. The Storytelling Arts Center will have copies of all of Rash’s books available for purchase during the event. For more information on this specific event, please call 910-291-0929 or visit www.storyartscenter.org.
Rash will complete his visit at the St. Andrews Writers’ Forum. All events are free and open to the public.
