I admittedly do not know much about Kwanzaa, but I’d like to learn more. Columbus people will have an opportunity to do just that during Kwanzaa Celebration, 6 p.m. Dec. 29 at the Bartholomew County Public Library, 536 Fifth St. Kwanzaa honors African heritage in African-American culture. Theme is “Embracing Kwanzaa’s Principles and Practice: Creating and Celebrating the Good.” A pitch-in feast will be conducted after the program. Information: 812-379-1266 and mybcpl.org.
