Nevada County Library Hosts Series of American Creed Community Conversations

The Nevada County Community Library was selected by the American Library Association (ALA) in partnership with Citizen Film and the National Writing Project, as one of 50 libraries nationwide receiving a programming grant to host community conversations centered on American Creed. American Creed Community Conversations are film screenings and facilitated discussions that mirror the type of conversation Rice and Kennedy have in the film: one designed to engage Americans in reflection and dialogue about their own part in the American story, and in acting to shape that story for the better. The Nevada County Community Library is participating in American Creed Community Conversations because public discourse and understanding are important to the health of our community.

American Creed is a co-production of Citizen Film and WTTW Chicago and was made possible by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting as part of American Graduate: Let’s Make It Happen. American Creed Community Conversations are supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities.
