More Info

Jason Reynolds

Jason Reynolds is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of many award-winning books, including Look Both Ways: A Tale Told in Ten Blocks, All American Boys (with Brendan Kiely), Long Way Down, Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You (with Ibram X. Kendi), Stuntboy, in the Meantime (illustrated by Raúl the Third), and Ain’t Burned All the Bright (with artwork by Jason Griffin). The recipient of a Newbery Honor, a Printz Honor, an NAACP Image Award, and multiple Coretta Scott King honors, Reynolds is also the 2020-2022 National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature. He has appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Late Night with Seth Meyers, CBS Sunday Morning, Good Morning America, and various media outlets. He is on faculty at Lesley University, for the Writing for Young People MFA Program and lives in Washington, DC.

Banned Books Week was started in 1982 by the American Library Association as a way to bring attention to censorship. During this week, which usually occurs the last week of September or the first week of October, events take place around the country highlighting intellectual freedom and the consequences that occur when censorship takes place. Banned Books Week brings together libraries, publishers, authors, and schools to celebrate the freedom to read.

At Lake County Public Library, we celebrate by inviting nationally and internationally known authors who have experienced their works being banned. This event has grown rapidly since our inaugural event with Nic Stone in 2022 and we are committed to continuing this event.

Climate Town Live! A Very Colorado Town Hall

Wednesday, October 1 | 7 – 8:15 PM | Silverthorne Pavilion
Doors open at 6:30

Can climate change be…funny? Let’s find out! Join HC3 for an evening with comedian Rollie Williams.

Rollie is the creator and host of Climate Town, a YouTube series about the climate crisis, and co-creator of The Climate Denier’s Playbook. A Golden, Colorado native turned Brooklyn-based comedian, he also happens to hold a master’s degree in Climate Science & Policy from Columbia University.

While the climate crisis doesn’t exactly scream “comedy show,” for one night, Rollie will explore the lighter side of the defining challenge of our century. Using multimedia, sharp wit, and a healthy dose of research, he’ll unpack everything from oil propaganda to corporate misfeasance to our complex energy system. Witness the comedy phenomenon that critics are already calling, “not as depressing as I thought it would be!”  

This event is FREE, but tickets are required. A special thanks to the Town of Silverthorne for their generous support in hosting this event.

Fast-paced Vision + Goals Hackathon where we’ll gather quick-fire feedback, test ideas, and set priorities to turn our Vision into action. Dinner provided!

Hands-on community mapping session to discuss the physical conditions that make — or challenge — great community places, and explore where different types of housing, neighborhoods, and growth could make sense in our community. Dinner provided! This is roll-up-your-sleeves community planning!
