Join Us for "That Reminds Me of a Story"
“The great thing about collecting stories," says Rule,"is they’re free and you don’t have to dust them. Stories not only speak to us of history, they hold our identity.”
Her work in Berlin collecting stories of the mills, logging, and the Androscoggin Valley reinforced her idea that New England stories need to be preserved and shared.
In this program she’ll tell some of her favorite stories about this rocky old state (especially the funny ones) and invite audience members to tell some of their own.
Rule's books will be available for sale and signature following the presentation.
This event, made possible by a grant from the NH Humanities Council, is free and open to the public.
