Please join the members of the Afro-American Historical & Genealogical Society, Arkansas Chapter Saturday, August 7, 2021 from 4:00 - 6:00pm for a book-signing and reception for Author Calvin Wilbon. Raised in Wrightsville, AR, Calvin has had a love for animals, mostly with dogs, since the age of two (2). This love grew into a passion, this passion into a profession.

Meet Primo, his 3 year old K-9! Primo will showcase his many talents as a service animal, executive protector, law enforcer and as a loving pet. Enjoy the evening at the Millie Brooks Library, Central Arkansas Library System and purchase an autographed copy of the book: Understanding the Dog's Mind Through Survival and Comfort.

I look forward to seeing you all there! Tamela
