In the middle of a seminar for 40 students from the University of Louisville last week, the Kirk Center lost power due to high winds. The seminar talks on "Tolkien, Lewis, Kirk and the Moral Imagination" continued, while behind-the-scenes our staff creatively adjusted plans for the rest of the day.

I'm happy to say that the evening gathering concluded memorably with a lovely candlelit dinner and the singing of Christmas carols. Hope you enjoy these photos from the event.

Best wishes to you for a blessed Christmastide,

Annette Y. Kirk, President
The Russell Kirk Center for Cultural Renewal
