About the Event
TTAR & The Mattapoisett Land Trust bring you a Story Walk™ at Dunseith Gardens in Mattapoisett featuring the book "Coretta" by Coretta Scott King and Illustrated by Ekua Holmes.
We have an opening reception scheduled for Saturday, February 10th at 9:30 am. We will have hot cider, fruit, energy bars, and other healthy snacks.
This is the autobiography of Coretta Scott King––wife of Martin Luther King, Jr.; founder of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change (the King Center); architect of the MLK, Jr. legacy; and global leader in movements for civil and human rights as well as peace. Learn about how a girl born in the segregated deep south became a global leader at the forefront of the peace movement and an unforgettable champion of social change.
Resilience, bravery, and joy lie at the center of this timeless story about fighting for justice against all odds.
Dunseith is a 3 acre park which includes open lawns, specimen trees, benches, covered picnic tables, a gazebo and Salty the Seahorse, a landmark to generations of Mattapoisett visitors. There also is a short trail to a small stream in the northeast corner of the property. Off-street parking is available on the property and is accessed from Route 6.
