Upcoming events
I’m pleased to be talking about Caroline Lockhart at several events across Montana and Wyoming in the coming months. All of the following events are free and open to the public, and I would be delighted to see you there.
On Thursday, March 29, at the Western Heritage Center in Billings, I’ll be talking about Caroline as part of the Noon Lecture Series that’s focusing on extraordinary women. The series is related to an outstanding exhibit the Center has put together, which includes a newly-found map of the Lockhart homestead in the Dryhead. There’s more on the event, co-sponsored by Humanities Montana, here.
On Wednesday, April 25, at 6:00 p.m. at Northwest College in Powell, I’ll be leading a discussion of Lockhart’s novel “The Lady Doc.” Celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, this controversial novel split Park County in two upon its publication. Was it a scathing indictment of high-level incompetence and evil, or a hate-filled delusional rant? The one thing everyone could agree on was that Lockhart had made little up. The free event, sponsored by Powell Valley Community Education, is in the NWC Fagerberg Bldg, Rm 70.
On Friday, June 29 I’ll be at Beavertail Hill State Park, 25 miles east of Missoula on I-90, as part of its Friday evening interpretive series. Then the following evening, Saturday, June 30, I move to Salmon Lake State Park, near the town of Seeley Lake. A great chance to get outside during a gorgeous Montana summer!
