Join Gregory for an evening of stories, chapter readings, and open discussion as we learn about the everchanging shore, and how we are each on our own journey.
After a debilitating nervous breakdown, author Gregory Andrus set out to walk every single beach of the Jersey Shore, from Sandy Hook all the way down to Cape May. Walking through snowstorms, heat waves, and gales, as well as stunning sunny days, Gregory forged ahead, with nothing but his trusty film camera, his love of the ocean and his faith keeping him company. By the end of the journey, Gregory was surprised by what he learned.
