Join us as author Ken Lamberton shares stories and experiences from his most recent book Chasing Arizona: One Man's Yearlong Obsession with the Grand Canyon State. Chasing Arizona is unlike any book of its kind. It is an adventure story, a tale of Arizona, a road-warrior narrative. It is a quest to see and experience as much of Arizona as possible. Through intimate portrayals of people and place, readers deeply experience the Grand Canyon State and at the same time celebrate what makes Arizona a wonderful place to visit and live. Read more

Tickets are $50 per person or $1,000 for a table of 8. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, no reservations except for table purchases. Purchase tickets online
