Famed author of "Rubyfruit Jungle" and social and animal rights activist Rita Mae Brown is set to make an appearance at The Saugatuck Center for the Arts on Thursday, Sept. 5 from 6 to 9 p.m. Joining her is bestselling Michigan author and resident Wade Rouse. Organizers say the evening will be filled "with personal stories about writing, literature, publishing and life as well as behind-the-scenes dish with the best-selling authors and pals."
This event will also serve as a fundraiser for children's programming at the Center.
"Proceeds from the evening support the SCA's cost-free children's programming, something Wade is passionate about," organizers wrote. "Wade has, in the past, done several fundraising events for the SCA, helping us tell the story of what the SCA does for and with regional schools, at-risk students and migrant children."
