Marshall Public Library is excited to host the Let’s Talk About It (LTAI) series, a dynamic reading and discussion program designed to bring together community members in thoughtful conversation around literature and culture.
The series theme, Pages and Palates, explores how food shapes our identities and relationships. Each event includes a short presentation by a guest scholar, guided discussion, and themed refreshments inspired by the book.
“Marshall Public Library has a proud history of promoting inclusion through displays, programs, and partnerships,” said Jackie Wood, public services librarian and program coordinator. “The LTAI series expands our efforts to celebrate the cultural richness of our community.”
