Kansas Humanities Council

Kansas Reads . . .. The Virgin of Small Plains Scholars

 

Are you looking for a discussion leader for The Virgin of Small Plains? In fall 2008, the Kansas Humanities Council and the Kansas Center for the Book met with a group of humanities discussion leaders to review the book and identify themes and potential questions.
 
Now it’s your turn! Invite one of these individuals to your community for a lively conversation about small towns, community, growing up, and the power of hope. Honorariums, travel expenses, and event arrangements are to be negotiated by your organization.
