Tuesday, June 28 at 5:30 p.m. Celebrate the Power of Pride with “Becoming Flo” Author Deb Carson
Join Deb Carson for the multimedia presentation based on her book about her uncle, one of Ringling’s celebrity clowns.
“Becoming FLO” is the inspiring true story of 16 year old Abraham, the Orthodox Jewish boy who fled home in 1920 from a homophobic, abusive father, joined a traveling circus, overcame anti-Semitism, found fame, and finally, in the safety of her circus family - herself. FLO’s remarkable story shines a light on courage in an era of intolerance, the power of art to transcend, and for those who struggle similarly, illuminates a way out. Book signings follow.
