South Street Seaport Hosts Brian Floca for "Lightship" Book Reading

The South Street Seaport Museum announced it will welcome special guest Brian Floca, author of award winning story Lightship.
 
Sitting aboard the 1907 Barque PEKING, you will be able to see Lightship AMBROSE while listening to Brian Floca's tale about her, inspired by that precise location.
 
It is an event for all ages, where families can enjoy the reading of Lightship, accompanied with live storyboard creations and sketches. Family attendants will be given the opportunity to ask Floca himself any hindering questions.

In addition, Floca will discuss the bookmaking process and how a simple idea for a book can become reality (and fantasy).

The event will take place at Pier 16: South Street Seaport on Friday, August 22, at 2 PM. Tickets can be purchased in advanced on the South Street Seaport website.
