An Afternoon with Anne Byrn

Please join us as we welcome New York Times-bestselling author Anne Byrn, just as her latest book, Baking in the American South, hits shelves.

“My new cookbook is a love letter to Southern baking, a legacy built by grandmothers, modern chefs, and Black women and men who pioneered these flavors,” Byrn points out. “It’s more than recipes — it’s stories, traditions and the taste of home baked with love. Get ready to savor the South through the baking that made it famous.”

Think Thomasville Cheese Biscuits, Church Ladies’ Cinnamon Coffee Cake, Martha Nesbit’s Blueberry Muffins, Demopolis Turtleback Cookies and much, much more!

Byrn will speak in Well-Spring’s Virginia Somerville Sutton Theatre from 4-5 p.m., followed by a simple reception featuring treats from Byrn’s new book prepared by Well-Spring’s renowned culinary team. Admission is free and open to the public, but we ask that you 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐬𝐨 𝐰𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝!
