The Carter Family: Don't Forget This Song is a story of the Carter Family's rise to success, their struggles along the way, and their impact on contemporary and country music. Written in the Southern dialect of the time, it is also a story of success and failure, poverty and wealth, racism and tolerance, creativity and business, and of the power of music and love. 
There will be live music at this event, as well as a slide show. Books will be available for sale and signing.
