Join us for a conversation with Minnesota author Marcie R. Rendon.

Rendon, an Indigenous woman, mother and former therapist uses her experience and intimate knowledge of the state’s backroads and byways to weave tales about the good and the evils that exist in rural America’s seedy underbelly.

Rendon is an enrolled member of the White Earth Nation, author, playwright, poet, freelance writer, and community arts activist. Rendon supports native artists, writers, and creators to pursue their art, and is a speaker for colleges and community groups on Native issues, leadership, writing. As the creative mind behind Raving Native Theater, Rendon has also curated community created performances such as Art Is… Creative Native Resilience, featuring three Anishinaabe performance artists, which premiered on TPT (Twin Cities Public Television), June 2019.

This program is sponsored through a community collaboration grant with the City of La Crescent and the La Crescent Area Historical Society thanks to the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

Pearl Street Books will sell Rendon’s books after this program, and Marcie will be available to sign them.
