Keys History & Discovery Center’s Cocktails with the Curator Includes Guest

Storm of the Century Author Willie Drye Joins Brad Bertelli

Islamorada, FL – A virtual program, Cocktails with the Curator, being offered by Keys History & Discovery Center on Wednesday, Sept. 9. 6-7 p.m., via Zoom, brings a special guest with the addition of Author Willie Drye.

Drye, a journalist and author, who penned Storm of the Century: The Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 and For Sale-American Paradise: How Our Nation Was Sold An Impossible Dream In Florida, will join the Center’s Curator Brad Bertelli for this open question-and-answer happy hour about all things Keys history.

The program is free to attend but capacity is limited. Advance registration is required at www.keysdiscovery.com/curatorconnections. Priority access is for museum members with session seats being assigned exclusively to members until the Monday prior to the event at 9 a.m. When the member priority access window closes, any non-members who have registered will be given remaining slots in the order in which they registered. Registrants will receive a confirmation e-mail with a link to join the session when the virtual seat is assigned.­­

Cocktails with the Curator and Community Views, another program with Bertelli, resulted from the extended stay-at-home order, will continue as part of the regular program offerings by Keys History & Discovery Center.
