Join Connecticut author Christine A. Baker, a Mercy High School alumna and graduate of Wesleyan University’s M.A.L.S. program, for the official launch celebration of her new novel, "Raising Artemis", on Tuesday, December 15, from 6–9 p.m. at Mercy High School in Middletown.
The evening will feature a lively conversation about the book, creativity, animals, reinvention, and the stories that shape us, moderated by Catherine Shen of Connecticut Public, with Gabrielle Lucivero of ESPN Radio serving as emcee.
Tickets are $50 and include a copy of "Raising Artemis" along with a buffet dinner.
$20 of each ticket is a tax-deductible contribution benefiting Mercy High School, making the evening both a celebration of the book and a way to support the Mercy community.
With the holidays just around the corner, "Raising Artemis" also makes a meaningful gift for animal lovers, readers, and anyone drawn to stories of hope, healing, homecoming, and the extraordinary connections we share with animals.
Come celebrate the launch, enjoy a special evening at Mercy, and leave with a copy of "Raising Artemis" in hand.
