Join us at the library on Thursday, March 19 at 6pm for a presentation with Ozarks Alive's Kaitlyn McConnell.
"Seeing and Building Community Through Tradition" discusses the tried and true traditions that still connect us to where we are--even in our fast-paced world.
Kaitlyn sees this in her travels throughout the region: From quilting to music and food, in this talk she will share long-held examples of our regional culture that endure. As part of these observations, she will also share about the Ozarks Pie Project, an effort she began in 2024 to bake and share pies from vintage Ozarks cookbooks. The effort resulted in the publication of “The Ozarks Pie Project Diary,” a cookbook filled with recipes and stories from across the region.
