February Virtual Book Club – Trickster: Native American Tales, A Graphic Collection
Wednesday, February 26, 7:00pm

Virtual Program Hosted by IAIS Staff on Zoom

Looking to expand your reading list and discuss a variety of issues and topics important to Native people? Please join our virtual book club, As They Speak: Native Voices in Today’s Literature. Based on a variety of topics and featuring a range of genres, all of the books we will be reading have been written by contemporary authors. This month, we will be reading and discussing Trickster: Native American Tales, A Graphic Collection, edited by Matt Dembicki. This graphic anthology of Native American trickster tales brings together Native American folklore and the world of comics. In Trickster, 24 Native storytellers were paired with 24 comic artists, telling cultural tales from across America. Ranging from serious and dramatic to funny and sometimes downright fiendish, these tales bring tricksters back into popular culture. Join the conversation hosted by IAIS staff on Zoom.

In order to have a more intimate conversation, space is limited. Please register online to receive the Zoom link. Questions? Please call (860) 868 0518 or email [email protected]. This is a free event, but donations are appreciated. This event will NOT be recorded.
