Three local writers discuss how they mined the memories of their pasts to create original work. This is a how-to session designed to inspire others to record family and local history. Chris Garcia, author of “Now and Always: A Louisiana Love Story” will discuss his research in organizing his grandparents’ love letters. Patricia Clanton will present her book “A Potpourri of Memories: Growing Up in Covington” which contains stories, poems and old photographs chronicling her memories of Covington in the 30’s and 40’s. David Arbo will be discussing “Covington: Images of America” which he has written as part of the Images of America series.
This event will take place at the Center of Performing Arts, 201 N. Columbia Street, Saturday April 13th at 7 p.m. Memories to Memoirs is a wine and cheese event, and it is free and open to the public.
