This is a Longwood Gardens Community Read event. Attendees will be entered into a free drawing for a family pass to Longwood Gardens. This year’s Community Read book for adults, “Paradise Under Glass” is a witty and absorbing memoir about one woman’s unlikely desire to build, stock, and tend a small conservatory in her suburban Maryland home. Ruth Kassinger’s wonderful story of the unique way she chose to cope with the profound changes in her life is interwoven with the fascinating history of conservatories from the Renaissance orangeries to the glass palaces of Kew. Reserve a copy of the book at https://chesp.na.iiivega.com and check out https://longwoodgardens.org/education/community-read for information on other Community Read events at Longwood and in the community.
