Diane B. Saxton will be here to talk about her debut novel, Peregrine Island. A mystery set off the coast of Connecticut, the novel "interweaves the lives of three generations of women, one valuable painting, the artist who created it, and those who would do anything to possess it – even kill".


Peregrine Island is already the winner of multiple awards, uncluding the 2017 National Indie Excellence Award for Northeast Regional Fiction and the Bronze Award from the Independent Publisher Book Awards.



Watercolor by Luigi Loir, the inspiration behind Peregrine Island.


Diane B. Saxton's writing has appeared in Vanity Fair, Huffington Post, and Greenwich Review. Copies of the book will be available to purchase.

Please join us for a community film series and discussion on systemic racism.

We will be showing White Like Me: Race, Racism, and White Privilege in America. "This film explores race and racism in the U.S. through the lens of whiteness and white privilege. Tim Wise offers a fascinating look back at the race-based white entitlement programs that built the American middle class, and argues that our fialure as a society to come to terms with this legacy of privilege continues to perpetuate racial inequality and race-driven political resentments today."

“The show was something not seen before...lights, techno-music, dance, acrobatics, juggling, comedy, robotics.  But what was most exciting was the audience.  Dozens of kids showed up for a show bristling with energy.  Lighting effects dazzled, music was electric--the audience followed every move."
(Johnson Hall)
