November 25, 2017Reading: Animal Farm by George Orwell
Everyday Heroics: What Defines A Hero?
Over the past decade, the superhero genre has basked in a surge of popularity, thanks in no small part to Marvel Studios. This leads to an interesting question: What exactly is a hero?
Do we need Gamma rays and unexplainable mutations to be heroic, or, can there be a way to be deemed heroic in everyday life? Join us at the Town of Ulster Library as we explore this question through a variety of mediums.
