From the Lynn Museum & Arts Center: It’s that time of year again: Trails & Sails is here in Essex County! We are delighted to participate in this year’s lineup of free activities at the Lynn Museum & Arts Center as part of the festivities.
Author and Lynn native Evelyn Elwell Uyemura will read excerpts from her historical fiction novel “A Girl from Lynn.” Set in 1857, Lynn, 16-year-old Kat Newhall encounters labor unrest, the abolitionist movement, and more while working in a shoe factory.
Evelyn, a 1969 graduate of Lynn Classical, is a retired professor at El Camino College in California. Books will be available for sale and signing by the author. RSVP preferred.
Register here!
Admission to the museum is free on the days of our Trails & Sails events. We hope to see you here to celebrate the history and creativity of Essex County.
