CLOQUET, MN. (Northern News Now) - The Fond Du Lac Tribal and Community College (FDLTCC) will be hosting a free, public celebration to recognize a 2022 Minnesota Author Project Award-winning book published by the college.

Bringing Joy: A Local Literary Welcome is an anthology of poetry and art created by local writers and artists.

The book is inspired by the work of Muscogee poet, performer, and 23rd United States Poet Laureate, Joy Harjo.

The e-book won the 2022 Minnesota Author Project Award in the Communities Create category.

“Winning the 2022 Minnesota Author Project award in the Communities Create category shows the power of a community coming together around a central idea and how a single artist can influence and inspire so many,” stated author and FDLTCC English faculty member, Darci Schummer.
