Join us for a heart-warming evening as some of Livingston County’s most respected writers and performers gather to present Mommologues: Musings on Motherhood. All proceeds from the May 6, 2015, event will benefit LACASA Center.
This pre-Mother’s Day event celebrates the trials, tribulations and momentous moments of motherhood. Listen as contributors read poetry, essays and vignettes specially created for this event.
Readers who will share pieces they’ve written on motherhood include acclaimed storyteller Jeff Doyle; award-winning writers Buddy Moorehouse and Maria Stuart; The Great Foodini — aka Rene Chodkowski; and journalist blogger Mona Shand.
“We all know what an important role moms play in our community and in our society, and we want to celebrate that experience and give it a voice,” said Mona Shand, one of the show’s co-producers. “The Mommologues is an attempt put into words some of the things we’ve learned from our moms and as parents ourselves.”
“Mommologues” is produced by Shand and Maria Stuart. Sponsors of the event include The Livingston Post, and Christina Maria Photo & Design.
Come for an enjoyable evening of humor, insights and inspiration
