First Thursday Fiction Book Group

Join us for a discussion of Kristin Hannah's The Four Winds. The Four Winds is a rich, sweeping novel that stunningly brings to life the Great Depression and the people who lived through it—the harsh realities that divided us as a nation and the enduring battle between the haves and the have-nots. A testament to hope, resilience, and the strength of the human spirit to survive adversity, The Four Winds is an indelible portrait of America and the American dream, as seen through the eyes of one indomitable woman whose courage and sacrifice will come to define a generation.

Take 6 - In Concert

American a cappella Gospel sextet With 10 Grammy Awards, 10 Dove Awards, 2 NAACP Image Awards, a Soul Train Award and 3 Gold albums to their credit, Take 6 has come a long way from their days at Huntsville, Alabama’s Oakwood College where Claude McKnight formed the group as The Gentleman’s Estates Quartet in 1980. April 2018 marks the release of their sixteenth album, aptly titled ICONIC, and the debut of a PBS special, The Summit, alongside The Manhattan Transfer. Like a fine-tuned vocal orchestra, the group has admirably and adeptly pushed the boundaries of creativity across most musical genres, from straight-ahead Jazz to Pop to adult R&B to doo wop to blues with every new release and with their ever-evolving live performances. Please note: Some performers on the season may require heightened Covid-19 protocols and we will notify ticket holders in advance of each show. Visit hooverlibrary.org or call 205-444-7888 for more information. LOCATION: The Library Theatre
