Lewes History Book Festival Author Victoria Johnson in conversation with DelArt Executive Director Molly Giordano

DelArt Executive Director Molly Giordano will be in conversation with Victoria Johnson, author of Glorious Country: How Frederic Church Brought the World to America and America to the World, at the History Book Festival in Lewes. This first-ever biography of Frederic Church shows how the virtuosic artist and adventurer brought the wider world to a young America while putting American art on the international map. Johnson is an acclaimed author and Hunter College professor whose book American Eden was a finalist for both the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize. Held since 2017, the History Book Festival is the first and only book festival in the United States devoted exclusively to history. Free Seats are available on a first-come basis.
