We start with a free East of Eden Audiobook Walk at 9am and then begin the festivities with the author. Please join us in support of the Steinbeck House – bid on our “Ultimate Steinbeck Experience” auction items and/or buy a copy of Susan’s book – 20% of all sales go to fund the programs of  Steinbeck’s boyhood home.  Hope to see you at the event – it’s free!
