College Fest at the Rosenbach

The Rosenbach will be offering a behind-the-scenes look at manuscripts, drafts and personal letters by authors you know including Bram Stoker, Charles Dickens, Emily Dickinson, John Keats and Toni Morrison. You’ll also get to take a look at the work of authors you probably don’t know but should like the first Black author to be published in the United States, Phillis Wheatley, and American playwright Mercedes De Acosta who dated Greta Garbo and boasted that she could “get any woman from any man.” After geeking out with the letters, snag a discounted souvenir from our gift shop and grab some free snacks to enjoy in our walled garden.
