As part of its ongoing series, the James Merrill House in Stonington, CT, will be hosting nationally prominent poet and writer–Mary Jo Salter during the fall 2019–as Merrill Fellow. Funding will enable her to come to Stonington, CT, to give a lecture and a discussion session on poetry and writing on September 28, 2019; she will be invited to spend time in the National Historic Landmark Merrill Apartments in the village where the late poet wrote and made his home for forty years.
