Bill Harley travels the U.S and abroad to delight audiences with his original wit, heart-warming stories, songs and insights about the human experience. A two-time Grammy winner, he is vibrant, outrageous, unpredictable and genuine with songs and stories about growing up, schooling and what it is to be human—our connections with one another and with the planet we share. Families are invited to join us on the library lawn for this exciting musical performance! In the case of inclement weather, the event will be held in the meeting room.
