Follow in Ernest Hemingway’s footsteps Sunday afternoon when the Community Library offers a free demonstration of its new multimedia “Hemingway in Idaho’s High Desert” walking tour.
Library representatives will offer a guided experience of the app from instructions on how to download it to an in-person sampler of some of the sites with expanded interpretation.
The walk will start at the Sun Valley Lodge at 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 29. It will encompass several sites at the resort that Hemingway frequented.
The app, launched through the Travel Story’s app, takes in sites in Ketchum and Sun Valley.
In addition to the Hemingway tour, the library is offering a free tour of its Ulysses Cylinders exhibit, along with a screening of the short film “Chihuly Short Cuts.” The tour will be offered from 2 to 4:30 p.m. as part of the Library’s Suddenly Sunday!
The library will be open to the public from noon to 5 p.m. on that day.
The Ulysses Cylinders were blown by Seattle glassblower Dale Chihuly and fused with the glass thread drawings of Seaver Leslie. They depict scenes from James Joyce’s “Ulysses.”
Ketchum’s Community Library is only the third public venue allowed to display the cylinders.
