Local Author Talk with David Grady
Thursday, June 25 at 4:00 PM
Join us in welcoming local author David Grady to speak on his new book.
Part memoir, part cultural analysis (and as Grady half-jokes) “part group therapy session,” Our Mixtapes, Ourselves playfully and poignantly explores why New Wave, Punk, and Post-Punk music mattered so deeply to millions of Gen X teens back in the 1980s—and why it still resonates more than 40 years later.

This author talk will be held in Community Rooms AB.
Copies of Grady’s book will be available for purchase after the program.
