This is a ticketed event to ensure a thoughtfully curated experience. Tickets will go on sale here in early March.
Margaret Hutton’s fiction has appeared in such journals as The Sun and The South Carolina Review, and her essays can be found in Memoir Land and The Rumpus. She graduated with honors in creative writing from UNC-Chapel Hill and holds an MFA from George Mason University. A native North Carolinian and former environmental reporter, she now divides her time between the Washington, DC, area and her art studio in Chester County, Pennsylvania. If You Leave is her debut novel.
