Subject: Library Programs: Thursday, Birds & Butterflies @ East Regional & Saturday, Lucrezia Borgia @ Southwest Regional Library

Hello,
Tomorrow, the Durham County Library hosts the second of a four-part series, The Liberated Gardener, on making gardening more fun and sustainable. Horticultural professional, Frank Hyman, will discuss which earthbound join which earthbound flowers attract the flying flowers -birds and butterflies - to a garden. Hyman will be giving away free copies of some of the magazines he writes for (first come, first served) and there will be door prizes from local garden centers.
Hyman has been published in the New York Times; he is a columnist for the Durham News and Urban Farm and a contributing editor for Horticulture.
The program takes place at the East Regional Library, 211 Lick Creek Lane, on Thursday, January 12 at 7 p. m

Saturday meet Lucrezia Borgia. Borgia, the 16th-century Duchess of Ferrara, has been portrayed as an evil femme fatale who poisoned lovers, husbands and enemies of the Borgia family. But did she really? Was she, instead, an innocent pawn in the hands of her father, the pope, or her power-hungry brother?  Borgia, portrayed by Dr. Sally Ann Drucker, will present her own perspective on her much-discussed life and the options available to aristocratic women in Renaissance Italy.

The program will take place at Southwest Regional Library, 3605 Shannon Road, at 3 p.m. on Saturday, January 14. The library previously featured Drucker in dramatic representations of Emma Goldman and Rosie the Riveter.
These programs are made possible by the Durham Library Foundation.

All the Best,
Joanne
