What inspires you about your community? Do you live by the sea and look to the waves and tides to bring you peace? Do you live in a rural area where the pastoral beauty harkens back to what some consider a simpler time? Does the hustle and bustle of an urban environment fill you with energy? 

The House of the Seven Gables is kicking off the What’s the Story? series with a special virtual lecture with internationally acclaimed author Brunonia Barry [link to: https://www.brunoniabarry.com]. Her best-selling works such as The Lace Reader and The Fifth Petal have captivated fiction lovers – and both works have ties to The Gables, Salem, and Essex County. Join us on Tuesday, February 23 at 6:00 p.m. for a cozy book talk and novel writing inspiration with this Salem-based celebrity. 

Registration is free, but donation to support The House of the Seven Gables while we are closed for COVID are greatly appreciated. For more details and a link to register, click here.
