Please join us online for a bit of intellectual socializing at the next installment of our Friday Evening Literary Salon series. Just FYI: for this one, you’ll need to supply your own wine and cheese! For this event, we'll share anecdotes and links to literary experiences we’ve been having over the last few weeks. What literary discoveries have you made online? A favorite poet or author reading aloud? A lecture by a famous professor? An innovative project combining history, art, and literature?

Judson Scruton and Michael Bellacosa will kick off the evening with a conversation about their recent online literary experiences. Then we’ll share your links and give you an opportunity to tell us a bit about how you found them, what you liked about them, and any other literary experiences you’ve had online that were stimulating, inspiring, or just entertaining. To help us to organize the event, please send your links in advance to Michael at mbellacosa@wiltonlibrary.org.

This program is made possible due to the support of the Literary Series in Memory of Amy Quigley.
