Ninth Street Women by Mary Gabriel is certainly worthy of not just an in-person book discussion, but also a walking tour of some of the sights & locations featured in the book!

Join us on Sunday June 6th to be transported back to the Greenwich village of the Abstract Expressionist’s time as we take a walk past the locations of such primary characters in the book as the Cedar Tavern, Jumble shop, original Whitney Museum location and many of the artist’s first apartments and studio locations.

*You don’t need to have finished the entire book to enjoy this book discussion & walk, though you will likely enjoy the book and appreciate the walk more if you’ve read at least part of it :)
