This Salon@615 is a free, ticketed event. A very limited number of tickets will be available on-site on the day of the event, after which walk-up guests will be accommodated on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strongly recommend arriving early for the on-site and walk-up ticket line.

To ensure a guaranteed seat, ticket holders need to be seated by 6:05pm. Any seats that are unfilled at 6:05 will begin to be filled with walk-up guests. Once all auditorium seats have been filled, guests will be accommodated in alternative viewing locations.

About the Event

Join us for an evening with Ruta Sepetys, internationally acclaimed, #1 New York Times bestselling author of historical fiction. Sepetys is considered a "crossover" novelist, as her books are read by both teens and adults worldwide.

She will discuss her new book, Fountains of Silence, an epic, heart-wrenching novel about identity, unforgettable love, repercussions of war, and the hidden violence of silence--inspired by the true postwar struggles of Spain.
