Timothy J. Kloberdanz, professor emeritus of anthropology, and Troyd A. Geist, NDSU alumnus and state folklorist, will be available to sign copies of their new book, “Sundogs and Sunflowers: Folklore and Folk Art of the Northern Great Plains,” Thursday, Feb. 17, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the NDSU Bookstore in the Memorial Union. Examples of North Dakota folk art also will be on display.

More than 1,000 examples of folklore and about 300 color photographs are included in the book.

“There has been a tremendous amount of interest in the book,” Kloberdanz said, “and so Troyd and I are pleased to do a book signing on campus. Because of all the time we both spent at NDSU, the place is like a second home to us. We hope to see some old friends and to make some new ones, too.”

A portion of the proceeds from the book sales will go toward a special scholarship fund for NDSU students.

“Sundogs and Sunflowers” is published by the North Dakota Council on the Arts. Copies of the hardbound volume will be available for sale at the NDSU Bookstore during the Feb. 17 book-signing event.
