The Washington Public Library will be hosting a special songwriters workshop with Iowa-based folk singer Carol Montag. The workshop will be on Saturday, October 22nd, at 10:00 am and will be open to all teenagers and adults. There will also be a free follow-up concert after the workshop at 2:00 pm, where she will be performing the music of Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins, and her original music.

Washington Public Library Director Cary Ann Siegfried spoke with KCII about the upcoming workshop. “We have a very special writers workshop this month with Carol Montag, who is very popular and has done a lot of concerts in Southeast Iowa, and there are a lot of people that are excited that we have her for a free concert.”
