"Wonder: The Lives of Anna and Harlan Hubbard", with Filmmaker Morgan Atkinson at The Floyd County Carnegie Library Cultural Arts Center

Join filmmaker Morgan Atkinson for a screening of his documentary about Anna and Harlan Hubbard, a couple known for their distinctive approach to life along the Ohio River. This year has brought renewed attention to their story, including a new historic marker and a symposium dedicated to their legacy. Whether you're already familiar with the Hubbards or encountering their story for the first time, this film offers a thoughtful introduction to their lives. The documentary is narrated by the late Wendell Berry, who knew the couple personally and documented their history. The screening is completely free and welcomes everyone—no ticket purchase necessary, though organizers appreciate advance registration. Atkinson brings over thirty years of filmmaking experience to this project and is recognized for creating deeply reflective documentaries. The event runs about an hour and a half, making it a manageable outing for families interested in local history or documentary films. It's a nice opportunity to learn about notable figures connected to our region in a relaxed, accessible setting at the library's Cultural Arts Center.
