Neighbors gathered at the East Atlanta Library on Monday, Nov. 16 for an evening of sharing the Stories that Bring us Home. Participants told their stories through a variety of media including poetry, acoustic music performance, readings, spoken word, comedy, and more. This event aimed to highlight stories of heritage, gratitude, family, traditions, and community. Audience attendees were welcomed and encouraged to enjoy listening and appreciating the performances. As with all events at the library, this evening’s event was free and open to the public.
The audience voted on the top performances, and the top three winners received a gift card prize. Light refreshments were served. The prizes and refreshments were sponsored by the Friends of the East Atlanta Library.
