About the Event
RATING | PG-13
Genre: Music
My 4th great-grandfather, Job Harmon, was an active member of his community in south central Missouri in the late 1800's holding leadership positions, teaching and sharing his point of view in newspaper writings and especially his journal. He was also a pioneer bringing his family from Kentucky to Missouri during the Civil War era capturing his reflections on life, family, society in journals of poetry. Those journals have been passed down the generations with select poems having been adapted to original music composed by Eric Keeney, and will be performed for you at STL Fringe Fest '24!
