Celebrate summer with Anchorage Public Library's Annual Concert Series -- Live @the Library!
These two performers have known each other for years, but only
started playing with one another in March of 2017. Nothin’ But Karma is made up
of Van Horn Ely of the band Agents of Karma and Megan Killoran from Nothin’ But
Trouble. Hence the name!
Megan and Van have over 40 years of singing and performance under
their belts combined. These two bring to the stage a plethora of 90’s music
with some other things thrown in the mix here and there. They stumbled upon the
90’s focus as their niche when they started putting together a set list and
realized most of them were from the 90’s. However it fit due to how much they
loved that era of music. So they just went with it! Their energy on stage if
fun and easy going! Come down and check out what this amazing duo has to offer!

“No Natives or Dogs Allowed,” blared the storefront sign at the young Tlingit Indian girl. The sting of those words would stay with Elizabeth Peratrovich all her life.

Alaskan and American hero for readers 10 and up. Fighter in Velvet Gloves was selected to represent Alaska at the

of the Books selection for high school students in Alaska.
Annie Boochever was born and raised in Juneau. After careers as a musician and educator, she earned an MFA in Creative Writing for Children and Young Adults. Her first book, Bristol Bay Summer was an Alaska State Battle of the Books selection for middle-grades and an International Literary Classic’s award winner for Best First Novel.
