From their website:
Joslyn Castle & Gardens is bringing a portion of their 15th Annual Art & Literary Festival to Red Cloud! Join us on Saturday, November 16th for a dramatic reading of Willa Cather's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel One of Ours, part of a weekend of programs celebrating Cather's work and its connections to Nebraska history. Adapted by Omaha playwright Scott Working, this dramatic reading will be right at home on the Red Cloud Opera House stage, a creative space that Cather herself enjoyed as both an audience member and performer during her childhood in Red Cloud.
Students through 12th grade can attend this program for free! Please call 402-746-2653 to reserve free student tickets.
