May 24: Lasso Our Heritage:

Cowboys and Cowgirls in Story and Song, Newport Public Library, 6-7pm.

Contemporary life in the American west is profoundly influenced by our rich heritage in the legend and lore of the early cowboys and cowgirls. In song, poetry, and story, this colorful program relates expressions of the work ethic, hardships, and joys of frontier life.

These traditions continue and are strong and vibrant in present day agricultural life. Bruce and Susan Matley of Prescott, Wash. bring the vibrancy of this tradition to life in a musical and poetic presentation, bringing the exciting lives of the cowboys and cowgirls alive in a more contemporary setting.

The Lasso Our Heritage program is brought to the library by the generosity of Humanities Washington.
