Author Reading and Signing with Mike de la Rocha


About this Event

Join us in store on Sunday, June 8 from 1-3pm for a special reading and signing with artist, entrepreneur, and author Mike de la Rocha, in honor of his memoir, Sacred Lessons: Teaching my Father How to Love. 

In this deeply moving and inspiring memoir, Mike de la Rocha reflects on his father's legacy as a beloved professor who impacted tens of thousands of students, yet struggled to teach his own son how to be emotionally vulnerable. In this book, readers are invited to go on a transformative journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and love. 

Books will be available for purchase at the event. Space will be limited and on a first come, first served basis.
