The theme of our most recent Pop-Up Stories event was "Borrowed and Stolen." Charles Upshaw was there to tell his story at the East Lansing Public Library.

Our final Pop-Up Stories of the season is happening this Wednesday at REACH Studio Art Center in REO Town. The mobile storytelling project is a joint venture between Current State, the Residential College in the Arts and Humanities, as well as community partners.

To get you warmed up, we have storyteller Charles Upshaw, who joined us last week at the East Lansing Public Library, with his story about something borrowed.
