Join us at the State Theatre for a discussion with prize-winning author Sandra Cisneros.
Sandra Cisneros will talk about the genesis of Caramelo and then respond to questions from the audience about her work. Everyone welcome! Sponsored by the Center for American Literary Studies at Penn State.
The 2013 Centre County Reads reading selection is Caramelo by Sandra Cisneros. With our partner organization, the Center for American Literary Studies at Penn State, we have an exciting programming season planned, concluding with an appearance by Sandra Cisneros at the State Theatre on Monday, April 15 at 7 p.m.! We'll kick off with a Mexican Fiesta at Schlow Library on March 16, teach you the craft of Papel Picado (Mexican Papercutting) at the Bellefonte Art Museum on April 6 and 7, feature a literary panel discussion, give you the chance to show off your writing skills in the Caramelo Writing Contest, and of course offer many book discussion groups around the county.
Copies of the book will be available for checkout at Schlow Centre Region Library and the Centre County Library, and will be sold at Barnes and Noble State College.
