From the first printing press in English America to legendary poets like Robert Frost and Elizabeth Bishop, Cambridge has long been a powerhouse for the written word. 📚

Join authors Karen Weintraub and Michael Kuchta (Born in Cambridge: 400 Years of Ideas and Innovators) for a 90-minute walking tour west of Harvard Square. Together, we'll explore the incredible "literary-industrial complex" of our city, diving into the lives of authors like Harriet Jacobs, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and May Sarton.

Whether you’re a big reader, a local history enthusiast, or just want to chat about your favorite authors with fellow neighbors, come ready to learn and share your thoughts!

The Details:
Saturday, July 25 from 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
Meet at the former Out of Town News kiosk in Harvard Square (the tour begins and ends here)
Rain Date: Sunday, July 26 at 10:00 AM

Registration: Required. Space is limited, and because this is a popular tour, it is highly likely to sell out!
