The Big Read of Clinton County--Week 2

The Big Read brings community conversations to Clinton County. The conversation about Bless Me, Ultima will take many different forms and happen in many different places.

Dr. Felicity Kelcourse, psychotherapist and Professor at Christian Theological Seminary will discuss how dreams speak to Antonio at Harry’s Coffee Bar at the Frankfort Library at 10am on September 15. She said, “Dreams connect us to the past and offer guidance for life’s journey. They come to us in the service of health and wholeness.”

Do we always speak with the same moral voice? Purdue’s Dr. Bob Lamb will probe this question using Huckleberry Finn as a departure point. His talk will be a brownbag lunch at Harry’s in the Frankfort Library at 11:30 on Wednesday, Sept. 19. His talk is sponsored by the Clinton County Chamber of Commerce.

Big Read creates community partnership to talk about civic values. Dr. Suellen Reed, Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction will bring her voice to the conversation about literacy and community partnerships on Thursday, September 20 at the Frankfort Library in Room 219.
