There were just 400 tickets available for the intimate “Evening with Garrison Keillor: Stories and Poems” event to raise funds for the Upper Mississippi Harvest literary magazine, which celebrated the release of its 2014 publication in April. The annual publication is edited and produced by students in cooperation with the Department of English and features poetry, short fiction, nonfiction and drama writing, black and white photography, art and comic works.
Keillor was joined by Rich Dworsky, pianist, organist, band leader and music director for “A Prairie Home Companion,” which is broadcast weekly to about 4 million listeners.
