Ragtime Journeys & Holiday Stories - Deborrah Wyndham, piano

The story of our ancestors’ music, through ragtime, an early 20th century form merging different musical styles brought to this land by immigrants, and through traditional holiday music, with a much longer history spanning many cultures and heritages.  Journey Stories: A Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition is open to the public from November 18 – December 29 during the regular operating hours of the Princeton Public Library in Princeton, Illinois.   Many local programs and films will be presented as part of the Journey Stories exhibition; a cooperation between Princeton Public Library, the Smithsonian Institution and the Illinois Humanities Council.
