"Silent Days, Silent Dreams" Book Signing with Allen Say

On the first annual Museum Store Sunday, we welcome noted children’s book author Allen Say for the launch of his new book, Silent Days, Silent Dreams. It is an imagined look at the childhood of James Castle, who was born deaf, mute, autistic, and probably dyslexic. Despite countless obstacles and challenges, Castle persevered in creating his art. Today, his works are featured in major exhibitions and collected by museums all over the world.

Say will be signing copies of Silent Days, Silent Dreams which will be available for sale at the JANM Store. Since it’s Member Appreciation Days, members will receive a 20% discount!
