Georgia Green Stamper - My Small Acreages: The Importance of Saving Local and Family Stories

Join us for an evening with Georgia Green Stamper as as she presents her lecture entitled "My Small Acreages: The Importance of Saving Local and Family Stories" based on her award-winning book "Small Acreages: New and Collected Essays". With wisdom and humor and compassion, Stamper reminds all readers that if we strive to unite with the universe, we must pay attention to the 'small acreages that have been entrusted to us' for safekeeping. About the author: Georgia Green Stamper is a seventh-generation Kentuckian who grew up on an Owen County tobacco farm that has been in her family for almost two centuries. The oral tradition of storytelling that thrived not only in her home but also throughout the rural Kentucky culture of her childhood lives on in Stamper’s writing. She is the author of three creative non-fiction books, both jury selected for inclusion in the reading series “New Books by Great Kentucky Writers” at Lexington’s Carnegie Center. She is a graduate of Transylvania University and lives in Lexington, Kentucky.
