Word on the Street was a lot of fun on a brisk, Saturday afternoon, Sept. 23 outside the downtown Lethbridge Public Library.
Local Jazz/ rock/ Celtic band The Junkman’s Quire, clad in toques and jackets played their usual upbeat set of Cello tinged folk and Celtic music.
Megan Brown strummed guitar and sang as frontman George Fowler sat and played cello.
As expected, Word on the Street is all about books and reading.
I took in parts of several panels on Blackfoot storytelling and learned a little about the meaning behind pow wow drumming.
Other tents featured an assortment of authors reading from their works, while a panel of mystery writers answered questions from a curious crowd about where their ideas come from.
