Honored to Host

This has been an incredible two weeks for the store and for Ann and I personally.

Last Wednesday's Spring Public Affairs Symposium, "A Preservation Conversation," was a tremendous demonstration of public support for preserving our neighborhoods. Earlier in the day, I was privileged to receive the "Hoosier Hospitality Award" from Lt. Gov. Becky Skilling in the rotunda of the state capitol.

Sunday's booksigning with David C. Barksdale and Robyn Davis Sekula exceeded all expectations and the sales of their new book, New Albany in Vintage Postcards, have been phenomenal.

This Friday at 6 p.m., we are honored to host author Alan McPherson for a book-signing for his Temples of Knowledge: Andrew Carnegie's Gift to Indiana. This will immediately follow the dedication of a historical marker at New Albany's Carnegie Center.

This is a one-time event and we encourage you all to come out and honor this singular achievement in documentary history. After the book-signing, many of the attendees will share a dinner presentation at The Parthenon, but dinner isn't a requirement to meet and talk with this eminent historian of Indiana.

Join us at 6, or wander down to the Carnegie for the marker dedication and reception at 4:30.
