Garden Tour/Book Signing June18

Local children’s author, Kate Chamberlin, will be signing her books during the Walworth Garden Tour on Saturday, June 18 from 1:00 – 5:00 PM at the Reville residence.
The Reville home at 3877 Orchard Street, Walworth, is one of the numerous and beautiful gardens that will be open to visitors. Dave Reville is the former head of the Cornell Extension in Wayne County. It is the perfect setting for Chamberlin to display, sell and sign her illustrated, children’s books, especially “Green Trillium”,
“Green Trillium” will introduce children and their families to many of the wild flowers that flourish in Wayne County. Chamberlin’s other books include “The Night Search”(a blind child learns the value of using the long, white cane) and “Charles and David” (although Charles, who is chubby, and David, who is diabetic are cousins, they have a hard time getting along until they spend the summer with Grandma on her farm). Chamberlin is a contributing author to “Behind Our Eyes, An Anthology by writers with a disability and on the editorial staff of “magnets and Ladders”, an on-line magazine. Her blog is www.katechamberlin.com.
Edie Pasquini, a local artist and former proprietress of Potpourri of Gifts,, will also be at Reville’s for visitors to view her Fine Arts and place orders for custom, building silhouettes and paintings.
The tour is free; however, visitors should first stop in at the Historical Society’s building, Academy Street, to pick up a map and register for a door prize. The Walworth Garden Tour is sponsored by the Walworth Historical Society and promoted by the Walworth Hamlet Association: www.WalworthHamletAssociation.org.
