Sarah Jessica Parker Book Club
First meeting Wednesday, October 18th
12 noon
Western Americana Room
Pick up books now

We’re starting up a different kind of book club, based on Book Club Central, a new initiative of the American Library Association that was designed to provide the public with the very best in reading. It’s a quarterly book club in which award-winning actor, producer, and avid reader Sarah Jessica Parker is the honorary chair. Ms. Parker will select books throughout the year to share her joy of reading and discussing good books with readers everywhere. The book club will begin in Pinedale during October and meet four times a year.

I have always loved to read for the same reason I love to act, which is that other people’s stories are more interesting to me than my own.
- Sarah Jessica Parker

Come in and pick up a copy of the first book, No One Is Coming to Save Us, by Stephanie Powell Watts, for our discussion in October. For more information, contact Judi Boyce at the library, 367-4114 or jboyce@sublettecountylibrary.org.

With roots in gypsy jazz, bluegrass, and hip-hop in an “exhilarating all-acoustic swirl” (Acoustic Guitar Magazine), Jon Stickley Trio combines Jon Stickley’s rapid-fire flatpicking guitar with the sultry and wild, yet refined, melodies of Lyndsay Pruett on violin set over the deep groove of Patrick Armitage on drums. The three have fused their collective styles into a repertoire of exciting and innovative original music along with some captivating covers. Admission is free and wine and appetizers will be served. Desserts will be available during intermission courtesy of the Sublette County Library Foundation. Don't miss it!

Free acoustic workshop with the band at 6 pm! Show up early with your acoustic instrument for a fun and hands-on workshop with Jon Stickley and Lyndsay Pruett.
