SUMMARY:Wilton Library's 128th Annual Meeting and Author Talk
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Library’s 128th Annual Meeting will include the election of the new trustees and officers\, a celebration of those who are retiring from the Board of Trustees\, and the presentation of awards for Wilton Library’s outstanding volunteer and staff person of the year. \nImmediately following the meeting\, the guest speaker will be Wilton author Dr. Mark Rubinstein. Dr. Rubinstein will discuss how mysteries and thrillers have thrived through the ages. What are their defining characteristics? How do they differ from each other and why are they enjoyed by so many generations of readers? Did Shakespeare write thrillers? What about Hemingway and Dostoyevsky? Why have mysteries and thrillers endured for centuries? And why are today’s bestseller lists populated by so many of them? \nDr. Rubinstein’s high-octane thrillers Mad Dog House and its sequel Mad Dog Justice were both finalists for the Foreward Book of the Year Award. The Lovers’ Tango won the gold medal in Popular Fiction at the Benjamin Franklin Awards. He has been a contributor to the Huffington Post\, was a contributor to Psychology Today\, contributes columns to Literary Hub’s Crime Reads\, and is a book reviewer for the New York Journal of Books. \nRegistration is required.

SUMMARY:Mark Schenker - “We Too Are Here”: 100 Years of Great American Novels by Women [Zoom]
DESCRIPTION:Mark Schenker will take a reset in his ongoing lecture series at Wilton Library on major American novels of the 20th century\, which reached the late 1950s last fall. For this spring and summer\, he will present two connected four-part series on eight American novels\, all by critically acclaimed woman novelists.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual Wilton Duck Race to Benefit Trout Unlimited
DESCRIPTION:Point Break Tacos and the Town of Wilton are hosting the 2nd Annual Wilton Duck Race on Sunday\, June 18 from 11 a.m.-12 p.m. This fun family event will follow a paddle of ambitious rubber ducks as they race down the Norwalk River to raise money for Trout Unlimited in its continued efforts to improve the Norwalk River.\n\n \n\nThe owners of Point Break Tacos\, Claire Anastasia and Jason Norrett\, had so much fun at last year’s event\, and were eager to bring it back for a second go-round.\n\n \n\n“Watching the kids cheer on their duckies at last year’s inaugural duck race was so amazing that we think the tradition should keep on going. Also\, being able to support organizations that protect the Norwalk River and the Norwalk River Valley Trail is an added benefit that will allow us to continue fun community events like this into the future\,” they said.\n\n \n\nParticipants can pick up their rubber ducks beginning at 11 a.m.\, and all ducks will simultaneously be launched over the Schenck’s Island bridge (across from Stop & Shop) at 11:30 a.m. sharp. The race will take approximately 15-20 minutes and spectators will be able to follow along from either the street sidewalk\, Schenck’s Island side or wait at the marked finish line downriver as the quick quackers hit some bumpy currents along the way\, encounter some real ducks and wildlife to race to the finish line.\n\n \n\nNets will be in place to catch the racing ducks and volunteers will be on hand to determine which duck crosses the finish line first. The participant with the winning duck will receive a fun prize.\n\n \n\nEach duck is a $20 donation to support the preservation of Schenck’s Island\, and 100% of all profits go to Trout Unlimited.\n\n \n\nAdditional details and registration instructions are available on the event website.\n\n \n\nOrganizers need volunteers to assist with the event. For more information or to sign up as a volunteer\, email Point Break Tacos.

SUMMARY:Hot & Cool Jazz: Venus & Mars featuring Roxy Coss and Lucas Pino
DESCRIPTION:Please join Wilton Library as husband-and-wife tenor-sax power-couple Lucas Pino and Roxy Coss make their debut as co-band leaders. The duo first met at a jam session in New York City in 2012\, joined as spouses in 2014\, became parents in 2021\, and now come together for the first time publicly in 2023 to present a set of music representing that journey. Venus & Mars is a modern jazz project and a counter-response to the old trope that “Men are from Mars\, Women are from Venus.” How do two woodwind players live together\, let alone perform together? Come find out! \nThe band will explore diverse arrangements from both musicians\, from the history of jazz from the 1930s all the way through today\, including some of their original compositions written for one another. The rhythm section joining this duo will feature some of the scene’s top rising stars: Mike King on piano\, Liany Mateo on bass\, and Dan Pugach on drums. \nHot & Cool Jazz is brought to you by the generosity of the Estate of James (Tom) and Alice Brown. \nThere is no for this event. A $10 donation is suggested. Wait-list spots only. Pre-registrants should arrive by 3:50pm to be guaranteed seating; wait-listed and walk-in registrants will be admitted after 3:50 pm if space is available. There will be a reception following the concert with CDs available for sale and signing. \nGRAMMY Award-winning musician\, composer\, bandleader\, recording artist\, educator and activist Roxy Coss has become one of the most innovative saxophonists on the scene. Winner of the 2022 Downbeat Critics’ Poll “Rising Star” category in soprano saxophone and an ASCAP Young Jazz Composer Award\, Jazziz Magazine listed her an “Artist to Watch\,” and she received the Hothouse Magazine & Jazzmobile “Tenor Saxophone” Award. \nAward-winning musician and composer Lucas Pino has performed at some of the world’s most esteemed festivals and venues. As a tenor saxophonist and multi-woodwind player\, his unique and lyrical approach make him one of the most in-demand side musicians across generations. Lucas has notably performed with Dave Brubeck\, Christian McBride\, Takuya Kuroda\, Darcy James Argue\, Alan Ferber\, Samora Pinderhughes\, Nick Finzer\, and Jazz at Lincoln Center’s “Songs We Love\,” among others. \nRegister on the Wilton Library website.

SUMMARY:Mark Schenker - “We Too Are Here”: 100 Years of Great American Novels by Women [Zoom]
DESCRIPTION:Mark Schenker will take a reset in his ongoing lecture series at Wilton Library on major American novels of the 20th century\, which reached the late 1950s last fall. For this spring and summer\, he will present two connected four-part series on eight American novels\, all by critically acclaimed woman novelists. These series will be offered via Zoom with a bonus: the fourth and eighth sessions will be in-person in the Brubeck Room (as well as on Zoom) with a short reception after the lecture to chat with Schenker and each other. \nThe titles span a full century and bring in considerations of race and ethnicity (African-American\, Jewish-American\, Native-American)\, and of immigration (from China\, Central Europe\, Mexico). The settings of these stories represent a striking array of American cities\, states\, and regions. \nTaken together\, these works of fiction invite you to think critically about the limitations of the idea of The Great American Novel and to embrace the broadest meaning of the word pluribus (“many”) in the traditional American motto: E Pluribus Unum. \nAttendees are not expected to read or reread all or even any of the novels\, but a familiarity with them will of course make the lectures more meaningful. \nSpring series:\nApril 12 – My Antonia\, Willa Cather\nApril 19 – Wise Blood\, Flannery O’Connor\nMay 3 – The Woman Warrior\, Maxine Hong Kingston\nMay 10 – Song of Solomon\, Toni Morrison. \nJune series:\nJune 8 – Housekeeping\, Marilynne Robinson\nJune 15 – The House on Mango Street\, Sandra Cisneros\nJune 22 – The Shawl\, Cynthia Ozick\nJune 29 – The Night Watchman\, Louise Erdrich \nRegistration is required.

SUMMARY:Tales to Tails
DESCRIPTION:Children who can read independently are invited to Wilton Library to read to a ROAR (Ridgefield Operation Animal Rescue) therapy dog. \nThe use of trained therapy dogs in reading programs can result in children who feel comfortable reading out loud\, read more often\, attempt more difficult books\, and actually look forward to reading. As they improve their literacy skills\, they’re not just learning how to read\, they’re learning to love to read! \nRegistration is required. Register on the Wilton Library’s website. Drop-ins admitted if space allows.

SUMMARY:Weekend Workshops – Colonial Cookery: Blueberry Pie
DESCRIPTION:Wild blueberries have been consumed by Indigenous peoples of New England for thousands of years. Colonial settlers also harvested blueberries\, as they were easily dried and stored for winter\, incorporated into a wide variety of recipes\, and used for medicinal purposes. Today\, the tradition of eating blueberries both on their own and as an ingredient in delicious baked goods remains as popular as ever. \nOn Saturday\, June 24 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.\, the Wilton Historical Society will hold its very own Colonial Blueberry Lattice Pie baking workshop.  Participants can dress in costume and discuss Colonial manners and customs\, and bake a scrumptious Colonial Blueberry Lattice Pie which will be served with a refreshing pitcher of sweet tea. Don’t miss this fun foray into the culinary past led by Museum Educator Catherine Lipper! \nSuggested for ages 6-10. The fee is $10 per child for members and $15 per child for non-members. \nRegister on the Wilton Historical Society website.
