Write Local Fridays, February 1, 8, 15, 10 AM
The great book for you is the book that has the most to say to you at the moment when you are reading. I do not mean the book that is most instructive, but the book that feeds your spirit. And that depends on your age, your experience, your psychological and spiritual need. --Robertson Davies
Through a Lens Darkly: Black Photographers
and the Emergence of a People
Wednesday, February 6, 6 PM
Through A Lens Darkly: Black Photographers
and the Emergence of a People explores the
history of Black photography and representation,
and how contemporary artists use this material as
inspiration in their visual storytelling.
This documentary explores the American family photo album
through the eyes of black photographers who discover images
that have been suppressed, forgotten and lost. From slavery to
the present, these extraordinary images unveil a world
confronting the difficult edges of citizenship and what it means
to be human.
Interwoven throughout are works of pioneering Black men and
women photographers, whose images helped reclaim the
collective self-worth and humanity of African Americans, and
uncovered a rich history of contributions to the development of
photography as an art form as well as a force to be reckoned
with.
Please register to attend.

Winchester Writers Group Tuesday, February 12, 6:00 PM
Winchester/Clark County Writers meet the second Tuesday of
each month to read the short stories they have written. Topics
for next month’s meeting are suggested at the end of each meet-
ing. Or, writers may write about a topic of their own choice.
After the story is read, it is then discussed by the group. We
welcome beginning writers or published authors. For
but never wears it; he has the power to arrest but
never uses it. But then the murder of an elderly
North African who fought in the French army
changes all that. Now Bruno must balance his beloved rou-
tines—living in his restored shepherd’s cottage, shopping at the
local market, drinking wine, strolling the countryside—with a
politically delicate investigation. He’s paired with a young po-
licewoman from Paris and the two suspect anti-immigrant mili-
tants. As they learn more about the dead man’s past, Bruno’s
suspicions turn toward a more complex motive.
Books available at the circulation desk.

Local History Potluck Dinner Program
Clark County Place Names:
Some You’ll Know and Some You Won’t
Presented by Harry Enoch
Thursday, February 28,
6:15 Dinner; 7 PM Program
Local historian, Harry Enoch, probably
knows the history, topography,
architecture, and personalities of Clark
County better than anyone. He has
written specifically about
Boonesborough, Howard’s Creek,
Grimes Mill, Morgan’s Station, and
Indian Old Fields. He has compiled an
index of historic Clark County roads, turnpikes, railroads, mills,
and ferries. His two-volume Where in the World? Historic
People and Places in Clark County is a ver itable guide book
and gazetteer of this area.
Harry LOVES Clark County and for February’s Local History
Potluck Dinner Program he’ll talk about some of his favorite
places. (He’s even promised to present pictures and perhaps
videos of an indisputable cat house in SW Clark County.)
So, wrap a casserole in a tea-towel and join fellow history
aficionados for this terrific tour of Clark County.
Please register to attend by calling the Library 859-744-5661,
or by using the Evanced online registration system at
www.clarkbooks.org. If you prefer to just hear the program,
come in about 6:50 PM, but please register to attend so we can
provide seating. For more information call the Library and
