The Mattapoisett Free Public Library, 7 Barstow Street will host two local authors this month.
Families are invited on Thursday, June 22 at 3 pm for a story time and Q & A session with local author Paul Steven Stone and illustrator Don Carter, creators of Cock-A-Doodle-Don’t, a children’s book. All ages welcome.
The Purrington Lecture Series presents author and artist Margo Connolly-Masson on Tuesday, June 27 at 6:00 pm. Margo recently published her first children’s picture book, And Then…Glen., a story about a pesky herring gull in New Bedford. Margo began writing and illustrating her book as the Artist-in-Residence at the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park in the fall of 2022. Join her at the library for a reading and a presentation about her process of writing, illustrating, and self-publishing. This event is appropriate for people of all ages. Self-guided art projects will be available for children during the presentation portion of the evening.
