Get into the Halloween spirit with our special program, Grimm's Grimmest: The Darker Side of Fairy Tales. This program challenges the popular, modern versions of fairy tales by reinstating the original gothic tales long before the stories were edited in the Victorian era. For example, what happened after Sleeping Beauty is awakened by the Prince's kiss? Most people believe they lived happily ever after, but this was far from the truth or intent of the original tale. Find out more through this innovative program. This program is intended for older children, teens, and adults. Funded by a Road Scholars grant from the Illinois Humanities Council.
The presentation is scheduled for this Saturday (October 14), at 1:00 pm.
