Robin will read excerpts from her new book, The Serviceberry, and share reflections on the current moment.After the program, Robin will be available to sign copies of her books, which will be available for purchase from Syracuse Cultural Workers, along with other related materials.
We expect a capacity crowd, but are not using tickets. The doors will open at 6 pm. May Memorial is wheelchair accessible.
There is no fee for the event, but donations are encouraged to support the Onondaga Nation Volunteer Fire Department (https://givebutter.com/ONVFD-benefit) which has significantly increased needs to care for the lands in the Tully Valley recently returned to the Onondaga Nation.
In order to create a safe and welcome event, we ask anyone who is feeling sick to stay home, and encourage attendees to wear N95 masks at the program, in order to protect us all.
