CAPE FEAR MEMORIAL BRIDGE CLOSURE: UPDATES, RESOURCES, AND CONTEXT

EVENT FULL - A Prairie Home Hot Dish Farewell Party at WHQR - Saturday, July 2nd

Garrison Keillor, Host of "A Prairie Home Companion"

THE EVENT IT FULL. PLEASE ENJOY THE SHOW ON THE AIR AT 91.3FM.

It's hard to believe that Garrison Kellior's final show as host of A Prairie Home Companion is less than two weeks away — and it's true what they say about time flying!

Join us in the MC Erny Gallery at 5 pm on Saturday, July 2nd as Garrison Keillor takes to the stage at the Hollywood Bowl for his final show as Host of A Prairie Home Companion. We invite you to bring your favorite hot dish, libation, and fond Garrison Keillor memories to our listening party in the MC Erny Gallery. We’ll provide soft drinks, snacks, and FUN!

In his farewell episode, Garrison Keillor will be joined by the Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and sound effects man Fred Newman, plus the Prairie Bowl Band, lead by the maestro himself, Richard Dworsky, as well as few of Garrison's favorite duet partners — Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, Aoife, O'Donovan, Heather Masse, and Christine DiGiallonardo – plus Guy Noir, the News From Lake Wobegon and more!

Please try to RSVP by emailing webservices@whqr.org by Thursday, June 30th at 5 pm. Let us know how many people are coming in your party and what hot dish you might be bringing!

If you cannot join us in WHQR's MC Erny Gallery, you can hear Garrison Keillor's farewell show on WHQR 91.3 FM at 6 pm on Saturday, July 2nd, and a rebroadcast will air at 11 am on Sunday, July 3rd.
