A Wisconsin Christmas tradition returns as Jim Miller brings his solo performance of Dylan Thomas' beloved holiday story A Child's Christmas in Wales to the Family Learning Center in Menomonie. The retired theatre professor and actor first performed his 30 minute solo rendition of the short story locally in 1990 and for many in the area attending the annual recitation of Thomas' classic memoir became an essential part of their own seasonal celebration. With only a few props and simple set pieces, Miller gives voice to the author's recollection of a 1920's boyhood spent in Swansea, Wales in those years around the sea-town corner now, and out of all sound except the distant speaking of the voices I sometimes hear a moment before sleep. The poet remembers Christmas as a time of ice cakes and blazing pudding, postmen and snowmen, caroling at strange dark doors and snowballing the neighborhood cats. There are always uncles at Christmas, he recalls, as well as an increasingly inebriated aunt, useless and useful presents, and occasionally a parlor full of firemen. Poignant but never grossly sentimental, seasonal yet secular, A Child's Christmas in Wales is an ideal Christmas event for all ages, and as always there is every possibility that candy may be thrown from the stage. Free admission but please bring a food or cash donation for the Stepping Stones food pantry.
Saturday, December 20, 11am-2pm. Drop in and meet author T Heights, she'll have books for sale and signing. And profits go to a dog rescue.
The Books:
Bombo is the first in a series about two eighth graders who rescue dogs and sometimes their owners. Robin Kould and Mary Yen become two unlikely comrades as they navigate the turbulent waters of their middle school years. Sometimes insightful, sometimes humorous, but always earnest, these two bungle their way through to accomplish their good deeds.
Saturday, November 22, 2-3:30pm. Celebrate the release of the community cookbook, Less Salt, More Sugar, a Little Wine: Cooking in Old Age, collected and written by Susan Thurin. Susan will talk about the cookbook briefly and then have a conversation with all present about cooking in old age- how we've changed our food and cooking habits and so on. Others who have contributed recipes, ideas, and photos will be available to add their two cents. There will be a little tasting also. She'll bring her raisin pie and we'll have other recipes to taste as well.
In person or via Zoom.
A night of peace, love, rock and soul with Minnesota vocal powerhouse Amanda Grace.

Whether you're a die-hard fan or a first-time listener, this concert promises an evening of magic, connection, and soulful vibes.
Tickets: Adults $15, Seniors $14, Youth $8
