Friends of Doylestown Library hosting free programs on Lenape Nation, improv comedy

Posted

The Friends of the Doylestown Library will host two free programs in March in the Pearl Buck Room of the Doylestown Library.

The Lenape Nation: Past, Present, and Future - On Sunday, March 3rd, at 2:00pm, this program will explore the culture and history of the indigenous people of our area.

“We hope to raise awareness of Lenape culture and correct a lot of the misinformation that is often taught about Lenape history,” says presenter Adam DePaul, a doctoral candidate and instructor at Temple University who is a co-founder and president of Native American and Indigenous Studies at Temple. “I have always had a personal passion to tell stories. I thoroughly enjoy this role because it embraces both my academic life and cultural life.”

Improv Night: An Event for All Ages - On Thursday, March 21st from 6:30 to 8:00pm, enjoy a night of live, unscripted, and family-friendly improv comedy.

Host Rick Horner and his friends bring their unique brand of comedy to the library, specializing in short-form improvisational “games” that are entirely made up on the spot.

Each show is a one-of-a-kind experience delivering lots of laughs, irrepressible joy, and a chance to join the troupe on stage.

Admission to both programs is free, and preregistration is recommended - please e-mail FriendsofDoylestownLibrary@gmail.com.
