📚 SAVE THE DATE! Meet the Author — Oct. 24

Join us Saturday, Oct. 24, at 11:30 a.m. at the Rye Public Library for an interview and book signing with Lew Karabatsos, author of Rye Through the Lens.

Featuring more than 160 photographs from the Rye Historical Society’s collection dating from 1880 to 1985, the book offers a wonderful look at everyday life in Rye — from fishermen at work and farmers in the fields to schoolchildren, family gatherings, Rye Harbor, lifesaving stations, and familiar Rye families including the Parsons, Caswells, Philbricks, and Fosses.

Published by Arcadia Publishing as part of its Images of America series, Rye Through the Lens is a fascinating photographic journey through a century of Rye history.

Pre-order your copy for $24.99:

📸 Also on display: A selection of contemporary photographs of Rye by local photographers will be exhibited in conjunction with the program and remain on view through Nov. 28.

Come see Rye through the lens of yesterday — and today!
