Upcoming Program: Margie Ruddick, Author of “Wild by Design”
In partnership with the Garden Club of Old Greenwich, Perrot Memorial Library is pleased to present Margie Ruddick, author of Wild by Design, on Wednesday, October 19, at 7 pm via Zoom.
For over twenty years, Margie Ruddick has been recognized for her pioneering work in landscape design. Winner of the 2013 Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award in landscape architecture, Margie has forged a design language that integrates ecology and culture.
Ruddick has turned her love of nature into a principled design approach, laid out in her new book Wild by Design: Strategies for Creating Life-enhancing Landscapes.
Ms. Ruddick will include real-life stories/pictures of landscapes she has designed or transformed, share her thought process and experience, use of particular plants, and site planning.
For more information, call the Library at 203-637-1066.

Upcoming Event: GPW/PML Book Discussion of French Braid, by Anne Tyler
Greenwich Pen Women and Perrot Memorial Library continue their cosponsored book discussion series on Wednesday, November 2, 2022, from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. This will be a hybrid discussion–both in-person (held in the Library’s Rand Room) and via Zoom. The group will discuss French Braid, by Anne Tyler. The discussion will be facilitated by Greenwich Pen Women member Terry Kelleher.
From the beloved Pulitzer Prize–winning author [Anne Tyler]—a funny, joyful, brilliantly perceptive journey deep into one Baltimore family’s foibles, from a boyfriend with a red Chevy in the 1950s up to a longed-for reunion with a grandchild in our pandemic present. [excerpted from Amazon]
