Description

Welcome to Our Town Oak Park, Ken Trainor’s new book featuring tales from his 30 years chronicling a dynamic, ever-evolving village like no other, and yet like all others; a place where the unique meets the universal. Based on columns he wrote for Wednesday Journal, Trainor shows that everyone has a story and everyone’s story is worth telling. Sketching who we are and finding true community, he captures life in one middle-sized, middle-class, Midwest town at the beginning of the 21st century.

Join us at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, May 12 at OPRF Museum for the launch of Ken Trainor's new book Our Town Oak Park. Trainor will read selections from his book and take questions from the audience. Autographed copies will be available for purchase. The event is free to all.
