_--ABOUT THE BIG READ---
In partnership with Art ReachSt. Croix, Franconia Sculpture Park, area libraries and other program partners, NEA Big Read in the St. Croix Valley will center Diane Wilson’s novel “The Seed Keeper”—a river story. The author’s connection to, and expressions of, a river are profound. The natural spaces of the St. Croix Valley are compelling influences on local creatives including on the author herself.
A month of multi-disciplinary programs will kick-off with a Write-In with Diane Wilson and Arrow Broken Poetry Collective on April 1. During April, you will find film screenings, writing workshops, two exhibitions at ArtReach and a traveling exhibit of Crop Art for one week at a time at 8 library locations from St. Croix Falls to Hastings. Learn more at artreachstcroix.org.
NEA Big Read in the St. Croix Valley is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest with additional support from the Human Family Unity Foundation.
