Greenwich Historical Society presents “Coffee with the Archivist: Greenwich Reads Fahrenheit 451,” Friday, Oct. 25, from 10 to 11 a.m.

In collaboration with the Greenwich Reads Together 2019 selection of Ray Bradbury’s ‘Fahrenheit 451’, join Greenwich Historical Society’s Archivist Christopher Shields as he highlights objects in their collection that relate our local history to the book’s major themes: life in the 1940s and 1950s, government surveillance, mental health and the importance of preservation.

Participants will visit the Archives to see the objects and then take part in a book talk with coffee and tea in the café. The event is free.

Greenwich Historical Society is located at 47 Strickland Rd. For more information, contact 203-869-6899 or visit greenwichhistory.org/events/
