Exploring Quirky Small American Towns, with Karen Gershowitz
Exploring Quirky Small American Towns, with Karen Gershowitz
Wednesday Jan. 2:45-4pm
Karen, a self-described “travel addict,” returns to CL&L with more stories and photos of offbeat and off-the-beaten-track towns. Some have museums and sights you may have heard of. For example, there’s the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass. and the Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library, an estate in Delaware, with one of the richest collections of Americana, home of Henry Francis du Pont, a prominent antiques collector and horticulturist. Other lesser known interesting towns in her session may be Mendocino, CA; Bisbee, AZ; and Chincoteague, VA (we’ll learn how to pronounce its name). Do you have a favorite town you’d like to introduce us to? Karen is author of the travel memoir Travel Mania: Stories of Wanderlust and Wanderlust: Extraordinary People, Quirky Places and Curious Cuisine.
