Join us at Papa’s on the Water Street Inn’s rooftop for Happy Hour, fabulous views of the St. Croix River and a stirring discussion of The Latehomecomer:  A Hmong Family Memoir by Kao Kalia Yang. Food and drink will be available to order on your own. Co-hosted by the Stillwater Public Library.

Rain date: June 8 – we’ll contact everyone who is registered if rain delays our happy hour.

This event is offered as part of ArtReach St. Croix’s NEA Big Read in the St. Croix Valley. We encourage you to join your St. Croix Valley neighbors in reading THE LATEHOMECOMER by Kao Kalia Yang. In June 2021, we will celebrate the arts with activities related to themes found in the book. More information is available at https://www.ArtReachStCroix.org/BigRead.
