The Cultural Events Committee has two more shows to present to our Sixes Stars this year.

 

Our next show on Friday, February 15th, will feature local Author and Storyteller Carmen Deedy

who will amuse and delight us with tales of childhood and family fun.  Ms. Deedy has recounted her hilarious tales of growing up Cuban in Decatur, Georgia for over a decade now, as well as classic folk tales from around the world.

 

Ms. Deedy is the author of The Library Dragon, Agatha's Feather Bed, and many other notable books.  Her newest work, Martina the Beautiful Cockroach: A Cuban Folktale, will be available on a pre-sale basis (see link below) to be autographed after the show.  Ms. Deedy has been a regular contributor to National Public Radio’s “All Things Considered” and “Latino USA” and has performed throughout the country gathering awards and honors along the way.

 

We look forward to seeing Carmen again this year on Friday, February 15th in the Media Center.

 

  If you would like to order any of Ms. Deedy's books please print, complete and submit

the following order form by Wednesday, February 6th.
