Sussex welcomes Frye Festival author Charlotte Gray
April 24, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
April 24, 7pm.
“Our country owes its success, not to some imagined tribal singularity, but to the fact that although its thirty-five million citizens do not look, speak or pray alike, we have learned to share this land and for the most part, live in neighbourly sympathy.” Charlotte Gray
AX, the new Arts and Culture Centre of Sussex, is partnering with the Frye Festival and Sussex Regional Library to bring award-winning author Charlotte Gray to Sussex. Charlotte will give an on-stage interview with Stephanie Coburn, discerning reader and past president of the Conservation Council of New Brunswick, and will then take questions from the audience.
Charlotte Gray is the author of ten non-fiction bestsellers, including Sisters in the Wilderness: The Lives Of Susanna Moodie And Catherine Parr Traill and her newest book, The Promise of Canada: 150 Years – People and Ideas That Have Shaped Our Country.
She has won many awards, such as the Pierre Berton Award and the Toronto Book Award. Three of her books have been adapted for the screen, including her award-winning Gold Diggers, which was made into a mini-series by US Discovery Television.
This event is free of charge and will take place at the Sussex Regional Library on April 24, 7:00 p.m. The author’s books will be available to the public.
