MARK YOUR CALENDARS !!

🌻 THIS IS A FREE EVENT 🌻

Dinner, conversation, and a national bestseller. 🍽️✨
Something special is coming to Portsmouth! We’re extremely excited to have author Crystal Wilkinson visit us in Portsmouth and spend some time with our community for a literary dinner you won't want to miss.

Join us at the 14th Street Community Center for an evening of powerful storytelling, and a delicious meal inspired by her national bestselling book, Praisesong for the Kitchen Ghosts. Stories and Recipes from Five Generations of Black Country Cooks. Praisesong is part memoir of Crystal’s time growing up in Casey County, Kentucky, in a little town called Indian Creek, and part cookbook filled with family recipes.

It’s going to be a beautiful evening celebrating food, heritage, and the rich legacy and presence of Black Appalachians and their influence on Appalachian foodways.

🙏🏻 Special Thanks: Maureen Berry Cadogan and 14th Street Community Center for their support and collaboration for this event 🌻💛
