Salutations!

 

Thanks to the many families who joined us over the annual Holiday Stroll weekend, it’s always great to see you and your extended families.  We have an Open House this week too, and we’ll be open on Wednesday and Thursday evenings until 9pm for the month of December (except that last day, we’ll close at 4pm on New Year’s Eve).  Lots of Local Voices events this month too, on Friday and Sunday afternoons.  Read on…

Local Voices

Mark Kozak: Cat & Cat
Sunday, December 6, 2015, 1:00—3:00PM
~ Friday & Sunday signings ~

“While you’re trying to find something, maybe you should also let something find you.” From underemployment to unemployment, Chris Telamon’s life hasn’t quite worked out the way he’s planned. Not even close. With a wife, two step-kids and dog, Chris has been stranded in a world he never made for his entire adult life. Now, after being laid-off from a job he never wanted in the first place, Chris finds himself at a crossroads. Staying the course means one more ride aboard the ceaseless, soul-sucking merry-go-round of ring-around-the collar jobs and desktop drudgery. The other path, however, meanders into the backyard of his shadowy neighbor, paroled sex offender Ron Barnes, and straight into the midst of a multi-state police investigation. One part thriller, one part confessional and hard-boiled to a steaming conclusion, Cat & Cat propels everyman Chris Telamon into a game of human chess where his every move forces him to face his future by confronting his past.
