Christmas Letters from C.E.S. Wood of the Cats Estate
Thursday, December 12, 7:00 - 9:00 pm
At The Art Museum (4 Tait Avenue)
Please join us for the first public reading
of the personal Christmas letters of C.E.S. Wood to family and friends.
Reproductions will be available for sale. Light holiday refreshments
will be served.
In 1904, writer, lawyer, and owner of the Cats Estate C.E.S. Wood began
celebrating Christmas by sending out Christmas messages in letter
format. Not intended as poetry or literature, but as "sarcasm and
propaganda" to family and friends, Wood's Christmas pieces
most often attack the hypocrisy of Christianity and the
commercialization of Christmas.

Light refreshments will be provided.
