Program Description
As a part of the NEA Big Read program, teens and adults are invited to a flash writing workshop. Inspired by Kao Kalia Yang’s The Latehomecomer: A Hmong Family Memoir, participants will learn how to step into the shoes of their ancestors through narrative writing. Writing supplies will be provided, all you’ll need is your imagination.
The National Endowment for the Arts Big Read is designed to help our nation broaden understanding of ourselves, our communities, and our world - all through reading the same book. The U.S. Marshals Museum is a recipient of an NEA Big Read grant for Spring 2025, and the Library is a community partner. The NEA Big Read hopes to build strong community connections by creating conversations with a variety of perspectives. NEA Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.
