# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Charles Smith Appears at the Derek Bish Show at the Author's Room of the Harold Washington Library
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 09 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sun, 09 Aug, 2026 at 04:30 pm
- **Event Description**: This is a traveling talk show that focuses on mainly Chicago's local entertainers of all kinds--musicians, dancers, authors, painters, sculptors, composers, other visual artists, performance artists---whatever. 

Derek Bish hosted "Welcome to the Show" with over 200 Chicago's local creatives, and this will be a traditional talk show--not a podcast. This is a mixture of conversation and performance that will focus on some of Chicago's unique artists and DIY artists, and I will be one of the panel participants. 

The event is free and open to the public, and this will be the first time I will be featured in the Harold Washington's Author's Room!
