Where clay meets fairy tale
Step into a story. On June 27th, Rebekah Cook Art 
and New England Carriage Co. are joining forces for the most enchanting 
morning Wakefield has ever seen — a hands-on pottery painting class 
followed by a genuine horse-drawn carriage ride.
Participants will create their very own ceramic piece, then trade the
 studio for the open air and ride away in a storybook carriage straight 
out of Cinderella. Brickley’s ice cream seals the magic.
Whether you’re surprising your little princess, celebrating with 
friends, or simply treating yourself to something extraordinary — this 
is a day you’ll talk about long after the clay is fired!
Book your time <a href="https://rebekahcookart.com/princess-pottery-carriage-ride/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">here</a>
Please note that if you plan to sign up multiple children, you have to do it one-by-one

Kemper Donovan is an acclaimed author and host of the “All About Agatha” podcast. His latest book, Sweet Spot, injects the spark and fizz of a Golden Age Murder Mystery into the present day, as a ghostwriter-turned-sleuth must find a devious killer who’s transforming her new assignment into a real-life thriller. Jenna Blum, internationally bestselling author of such novels as Those Who Save Us, The Stormchasers, and The Lost Family offers a contemporary, suspenseful novel about love, loss, and revenge in the world of books with her new thriller Murder Your Darlings. Leah Rowan is a Brooklyn- and Catskills-based author whose new thriller Marion is a twist on Hitchcock’s iconic classic Psycho, where the leading lady doesn't die, but instead turns the knife on Norm, kicking off a crime spree that turns the silver screen victim into a heroine for our times.

Maury Loontjens Memorial Library

The first presentation will cover the history of downtown Narragansett from 1900 to 1969. Major hurricanes in 1938 and 1954 flooded downtown and led to an effort by the Army Corps of Engineers to build storm protection. This was voted down by the residents in 1965. Ultimately a group of citizens led by Royal Little embarked on a plan to transform what some called an old downtown into a vibrant commercial district under the aegis of the Federal Urban Renewal Program. Plans were developed and town residents largely supported the effort in a vote in 1969. A video that was utilized by the town to win approval for that 1969 vote will complete this lecture. This will be presented by Terry Fleming and Robert Muller of the Narragansett Historical Society. There is no fee to attend, but please register on the Library's Events Page.

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.
