A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah

What does war look like through the eyes of a child soldier? How does one become a killer? How does one stop? It is rare to fin a first-person account from someone who endured this hell and survived. Ishmael Beah, now 26 years old, tells a powerfully gripping story.

Quilting: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow event


Thursday, April 7
6:30-8:30
Church History Museum

The event will be held in the galleries of the Museum. Several expert quilters including Cody Mazuran, Carol Morgan, Carol Bittner, and Beth Ann Neville will set up demonstration tables and informally interact with museum guests as they share information they have gleaned from years of creating beautiful quilts. Museum guests can ask questions, learn new techniques, and receive advice from quilters who have spent much of their life practicing and studying the art of quilting.

Author Carol Nielson and quilt researcher Suzanne Hudson will also be sharing information about two important historical quilts. Carol Nielson has researched and written about the LDS 14th Ward Album Quilt created around 1857. She will share insights about how she came to know and understand her grandmother after conducting in-depth research on a quilt she made.

Tuckett Brothers

Mon April 11, 2011

SCERA Center: Showhouse II

Roger, Paul, David and Randy are singin’ siblings from Spanish Fork! Their men's quartet has a “down-home” style and fun brotherly banter, with musical harmony that ranges from barbershop, patriotic and pop to country, folk and sacred.  These guys may be local, but their abundant talent is definitely big time.

Come find out why the stunning and seasoned four-part blend and easy family humor of The Tucketts always draws a crowd.  And don’t miss their signature comic highlight – a jumbled retelling of the story “Cinderfella and her Sisty Uglers!”
