The second annual Petoskey Area C.S. Lewis Festival will be held in Northern Michigan this November (www.cslewisfestival.org). Dubbed as “a month-long celebration of the life and works of one of the most beloved authors of the 20th-century,” the festival has received state-wide recognition as a unique collaborative effort between the local arts council, public schools, community college, and ministerial association.
Included among its board members is David Crouse of Crouse Entertainment, a local film producer who co-produced the PBS documentary “The Magic Never Ends: The Life and Works of C.S. Lewis”; as well as Dr. Christopher Mitchell, Director of the Marion E. Wade Center in Wheaton, Illinois. He will be leading a day-long seminar, along with another Lewis scholar, on Saturday, November 6. A Children’s Theater will perform a musical of “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe” Nov. 12-14.
For more information, visit www.cslewisfestival.org. Local hotels will be doing special packages for Lewis Festival weekends throughout the month, and every weekend is packed with events. To Narnia and the North!
Blessings,
Sarah Arthur,
C.S. Lewis Festival Secretary
