Wakefield Books

Local Author Glenn Morrow Book Signing at Wakefield Books, 10am to Noon, for his new novel Lighting Is Everything. Glenn Morrow is the celebrated author of two previous works of fiction: Things Beloved and Vacation and Other Tales of Enduring Love. He has worked as a teacher, advocacy journalist, editor of Storytelling Magazine, and technical writer. He believes that fiction should be a gift that offers humor, hope, and clarity. He resides and replaces lightbulbs in North Kingstown with his wife Deborah. Lighting Is Everything begins with a lightbulb joke. The porch bulb that Jerry and Franny are unable to reach is changed by a total stranger who proceeds to change their lives. Their quiet family home is abruptly upended and filled with movie lighting, illuminating a very different reality, with consequences both richly comic and deeply troubling. Light, in all of its manifestations, is the golden thread woven throughout that builds in emotional and spiritual resonance. No registration required for this in-store event.

Courthouse Center for the Arts

Jack &amp; Diane still run wild, Pink Houses still glow at the edge of a Small Town, and Hurts So Good still stings sweet. Paper In Fire plays these Mellencamp staples with grit, swing, and heart. Six seasoned musicians are here to R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A., making the house go Crumblin’ Down to an Authority Song, and showering Rain on the Scarecrow before a Cherry Bomb explodes into the burn of Paper in Fire. It’s a true sing-along night for-lifers and new fans alike. 
All ages. No outside food &amp; drink. Full bar and plentiful free parking onsite. Come see why the Courthouse has won #1 Live Music Venue three years running across 2023, 2024, and 2025!

WinterHawk Vineyards

Wakefield Books hosts Ann Hood In Conversation with Rosanne Annoni, to discuss Rosanne’s new book, Unfolding the Heart. Spanning decades of grief, motherhood, cancer, and healing, this memoir explores the messy beauty of a life lived with courageous self-inquiry. For spiritual seekers, healing professionals, or anyone navigating loss, midlife change, or a desire for inner truth, Unfolding the Heart is a cathartic, hopeful story of letting go, leaning in, and discovering that spiritual path isn’t somewhere far away—it’s right here, within. Rosanne Annoni was a successful psychotherapist for thirty-five years in the Bay Area before becoming an ordained teacher of the Diamond Approach in 2000. She has taught students and mentored teachers in the United States, the UK, and the EU. In 2024, she was awarded an Emerging Writer Fellowship from Aspen Words. Ann Hood is the author of more than a dozen books of memoir and fiction, including the best-selling novels The Book That Matters Most, The Red Thread, and The Knitting Circle. Winterhawk Vineyards is a beautiful, picturesque local winery tucked away in a wooded grove in West Kingston, Rhode Island. This is a ticketed event, and ticket price includes a glass of wine. <a href="https://annhoodrosanne-wb.eventbrite.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://annhoodrosanne-wb.eventbrite.com</a>

Will Henry joins us to sign copies of his new Wallace the Brave Adventure, All Hands on Deck! Snug Harbor, Rhode Island, is a paradise for childhood exploration—and home to the motley, good-natured cast of kids in the award-winning daily comic strip Wallace the Brave. In this full-color collection, Wallace chases big dreams: riding a giant ammonite down a 100-foot wave, turning his bathtub into a ball pit, and finding out whether the cracks in the school walls lead to another dimension. Joining him are best friends Spud, Amelia, and Rose. Will Henry is the creator behind Ordinary Bill and Wallace the Brave, both distributed on GoComics.com. His professional career began with his strip Room Mates, which was published in The Daily Campus during his time at the University of Connecticut. He draws his inspiration from everyday life and in the age of the smart-phone, he aims to re-create a world in which kids “still collect bugs and fly kites and eat ice cream cones upside-down.” No registration required for this in-store event.

Rustic-chic private farm venue in scenic Stonington, CT 

Deans Mill Farm 

Built in the mid-1700s as a functioning livestock farm, Deans Mill Farm has gone through an evolution in recent decades. A full renovation of the historic buildings and rejuvenation of the surrounding 70+ acres has made the property into the incredible venue it is today. Deans Mill Farm now operates primarily as a private event space and five-room bed and breakfast tucked down a private road in Stonington, Connecticut. It shares its property with Dragonfly Equestrian Center and is home to dozens of horses. On the property lies meadows, hiking trails, beautiful fields and Dragonfly Disc Golf. The property can be rented for weddings, birthday parties and other special events. Additionally, the bed and breakfast can be rented by the room or reserved in its entirety for complete privacy. The Farm has the ability to host small private indoor events for up to 50 guests in the Farmhouse. Outdoor tented events are our specialty, with numerous locations on-site that are picturesque for your celebration. Outdoor tented celebrations can accommodate up to 250 guests.
