The author of the newly released The Alaska Glacier Dictionary, and Homer local, Naomi Klouda will share a slideshow presentation called Every Glacier is Different. The presentation will include discussion about the importance of Alaska's glacier details, both in history and in future ramifications.

Klouda will give specific mention of the glaciers of Kachemak Bay.

Special guests, Jim Lavrakas (photographer) and Brian Smith (film maker and book designer), who both played roles in shaping Klouda’s book will share their insights and contributions to Klouda’s book.
