Current & Upcoming Events
Reading New England: Nathaniel Hawthorne
Have you always wanted to “read the classics” but never been sure where to start?
Join us for a three-session course exploring a seminal New England author. More than a book club, we'll balance guided discussion with historical and literary context to untangle Hawthorne's spooky tales. Pick one or two classes at $10 each, or sign up for all three and pay a discounted price of $25. Free to members!
Wed Sept 30, 6:00: “The Minister’s Black Veil”
Wed Oct 7, 6:00: “My Kinsman, Major Molineux”
Wed Oct 14, 6:00: “Young Goodman Brown”
Drop-ins welcome, but registration encouraged so that you can receive emails from the instructor ahead of each session. Email erin@southcountymuseum.org to register.
