Small Town, Big Dreams: How Two Writers From Brighton & Mattowan Turned Their Dreams Into Reality

Join 3X-author Lindsay MacMillan from Mattowan and Brighton-local Sarah Wood (Gonzalez) who writes for the likes of Vogue, The New York Times, Architectural Digest, Elle, and more, for a conversation about purpose, publishing, and persistence. 

In 2019, the women met in New York City working at Goldman Sachs and realized very quickly they had two things in common: both were from small towns in Michigan and both wanted desperately to be writers. Over the course of the six years that followed, each went on to carve out a non-traditional path into publishing. 

In celebration of Lindsay MacMillan's forthcoming book, Summer on Lilac Island, a mother-daughter story set in Mackinac Island, join the two writers for what will be an inspiring discussion on never giving up on your dreams.

*Doors open at 5:00*

*Your ticket includes a copy of Summer on Lilac Island*
