About this Event
Join bestselling mystery author Mia P. Manansala for a curated dinner featuring Filipino recipes from the Tita Rosie Kitchen Mysteries book series to learn about her journey as an author and the cultural importance of food in the Filipino diaspora.
A full curated dinner will be served including beverages, plated appetizers, buffet-style entrees and sides, and a plated dessert. Manansala will be present with guests before and after the program is presented. Galena Book & Paper will be on-site with books for purchase and signing.
Manansala is a writer from Chicago who loves books, baking, and bad-ass women. She is the author of the mulit-award-winning Tita Rosie’s Kitchen Mystery Series. She uses humor (and M**der) to explore aspects of the Filipino diaspora, queerness, and her millennial love for pop culture. She will be joined in conversation by Galena local Charissa McAuliff.
This is an in-person program presented at Hawk Valley Retreat & Cottages. Tickets are $65 per person and can be purchased at www.galenalibrary.org. Seating is limited.
