The Contemporary Theater Company

Meg Mitchell Moore worked as a copyeditor, editor, and writer for nonfiction publications before turning to fiction, and has now authored ten novels, including her latest, Down With the Shipmans. A delicious summer read that explores the enduring power of family and sister connections, Down with the Shipmans
is a humorous, heartfelt reminder that home is not a place, but the people who love you, no matter how imperfectly. Born in Rhode Island, Shannon Garvey now lives on the New Hampshire coastline, and received her MFA from the University of New Hampshire where she taught undergraduate classes. Shorter work of hers has been published by <a href="https://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/author/shannon-garvey/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">The Saturday Evening Post.</a>Shannon is the author of the debut novel June Baby - both a heartfelt coming-of-age story and a tender exploration of love and grief, set against a backdrop of golden dunes and seaside sunsets, June Baby shows us what it might look like to embrace a life shaped not by loss, but by possibility. This event is free to attend, but registration is required: <a href="https://megshannon-wb.eventbrite.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://megshannon-wb.eventbrite.com</a>

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.
