Join us on Thursday, August 21 at 6:30 pm, when local author Inga Aksamit will present her latest book, Between Worlds: An Expat's Quest for Belonging. Inga is an award-winning author, globe-trotting adventurer and veteran oncology nurse who writes about travel and human connection. She spent her formative childhood years as an expat as her family moved around the world for her father's work. Living in South Asia and South America in the 1960s brought the family through harrowing world events; in fact, by the time she was thirteen, Inga faced her second war zone! Come and hear about the benefits and challenges of being a third-culture kid, anecdotes from war zones, and how Inga eventually ended up in Kenwood, volunteering at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park.
Free event; RSVP required, as there will be a reception before the event. Bring layers, and if you'd like, a snack. Parking fees apply.
Ease of access: There are two main lots in the park: the main lot and the White Barn lot. Each lot has one van-designated accessible parking spot and an accessible porta-potty or vault toilet. Each parking lot has access to the ADA-compliant Creekside Nature Trail, which crosses the amphitheater. The trail measures approximately 0.45 miles one way, with the trail beginning across the main parking lot being the shortest of the two ends.
