Step into the ancient world of Sumer with Josh Brooks on Thursday, April 17th from 5:30 to 6:30 PM, and unearth myths from the world’s first urban civilization.

VUES humanities teacher Josh Brooks (VUHS ’93) will read from his new, self-published book, Anunnaki Tales: The Gods, Goddesses, and Kings of Ancient Sumer. The author will share myths from the world’s first urban civilization about the creation of the world, the first people, and legendary god-king Gilgamesh, along with helpful historical context. Illustrator and CVU art teacher Jason Fearon (VUHS ’93) will join the conversation to discuss his artistic process. Copies of Anunnaki Tales will be available for purchase at the event.

We hope you’ll join us for the presentation in the Bixby Library’s Community Room or on Zoom at https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89467105386?pwd=CilTFuEBgiaOYQlVu5bUGEHnCMooRi.1 (password: bixby)
