Wunneanatsu Lamb-Cason (Schaghticoke/HoChunk) is an award-winning educator, traditional storyteller, author, and advocate whose work centers on truth-telling, representation, and equity in education. A former high school history teacher, she was named the 2024 National History Teacher of the Year by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History—the first Indigenous educator to receive this honor. She now serves as the Assistant Director of Native American and Indigenous Studies at Brown University.

In her debut picture book, Grandmother Moon, Lamb-Cason celebrates the relationship between a grandmother and grandchild, weaving Indigenous teachings into a modern setting. Join us for a special talk and book signing, where she will discuss the importance of oral tradition in Indigenous communities and her process of bringing these stories into written form. The program will include a live reading from Grandmother Moon as well as examples of traditional stories, offering visitors of all ages the chance to reflect on the power of intergenerational storytelling.

Please note: A signed copy of the book is included in the price of admission. A limited number of additional copies will be available for purchase. Have two attendees, but only want one copy of the book? There is a combined ticket price option!

Space is limited and registration is requested. Please register below.
