Last year marked the 150th anniversary of Willa Cather’s birth. The year also marked the 100th anniversary of her Pulitzer Prize for her acclaimed novel One of Ours. A dramatic reading of excerpts from One of Ours will be presented during the Art & Literary Festival presented by the Castle & Cathedral District, Metropolitan Community College, and the National Willa Cather Center. An ensemble of seven will give voice to Claude Wheeler and the array of characters he encounters on his journey from farm boy to Doughboy. After the dramatic readings, attendees are invited to stay after for a talk-back conversation with the cast and crew of One of Ours.

Tickets $20 general admission, free for students with reservation.

Visit the festival website for more information and to purchase tickets.
