Carl Sandburg: Poet of the People with Barry Cloyd: 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM
For nearly two decades (1928–1945), Carl Sandburg made his home along the Michigan Dunes, where he wrote some of his most important works. Surrounded by sweeping sands and the ever-changing shores of Lake Michigan, he found solitude and inspiration in the rhythms of nature.
To honor Carl Sandburg’s 1931 performance at the Peoria Women’s Club, we invite you to a luncheon inspired by the beach before an afternoon of poetry, music, and storytelling.
In May we will feature a presentation by Dr. Jane Talkington, the nation’s only botulism historian after the luncheon.
