The Great American Read is an eight-part series that explores and celebrates the power of reading, told through the prism of America’s 100 best-loved novels. On October 1, guests will screen a portion of Heroes, an episode from the series which examines what makes everyday heroes and anti-heroes complex and relatable from Katniss Everdeen to Don Quixote. After the screening, guests will be joined by award winning writer, Lois Lowry, author of The Giver, one of the 100 books featured in the series. Following the presentation in the theater, attendees will continue the conversation during a dessert reception in our Atrium, allowing them the ability to chat with Lois Lowry and the opportunity to purchase one of her books.
