It’s a multi-sensory experience—an invitation to feel the story before (and after) you read it.Evening Highlights:Conversation with M.Z. & Peggy HarveyBook SigningLive Dance Performance by Vivid Dance - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/ogunquit/an-evening-with-mz-the-moorings-of-mackerel-sky/100001988196802156 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 24.99, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Ogunquit - **state**: ME - **country**: United States - **location**: Perkins Cove Bookshop - **lat**: 43.238226 - **long**: -70.5937715 - **full address**: Perkins Cove Bookshop, 12 Perkins Cove Road, Ogunquit, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: An Evening with MZ: The Moorings of Mackerel Sky - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/0248d82295b6ab6b71837d508c9103666d87755a3b8b8d3cef86dcdfc151f93c-rimg-w1200-h675-dc030301-gmir.jpg?v=1777382464 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is An Evening with MZ: The Moorings of Mackerel Sky being held? - **A:** An Evening with MZ: The Moorings of Mackerel Sky takes place on Fri, 05 Jun, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Fri, 05 Jun, 2026 at 06:30 pm at Perkins Cove Bookshop, 12 Perkins Cove Road, Ogunquit, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing An Evening with MZ: The Moorings of Mackerel Sky? - **A:** An Evening with MZ: The Moorings of Mackerel Sky is organized by Perkins Cove Bookshop. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
