About Lunch with the Authors


The Junior League of Morristown is pleased to announce its 21st Annual Lunch with the Authors will be held on Friday, May 5. Hosted at the exclusive Hamilton Farm Golf Club in Gladstone, NJ, our luncheon is an invitation to an uplifting and enchanting afternoon with friends and family benefiting our local community. Doors open at 11am and the event begins with a basket raffle with wine for purchase. Guests will then be seated for an elegant three-course luncheon while they hear remarks from nationally acclaimed authors. Jenny Jackson, author of Pineapple Street, Jean Hanff Korelitz, author of The Latecomer, and Karen Winn, author of Our Little World, will discuss their latest work, answer questions, and sign books before and after the luncheon. The event concludes at 3pm with the announcement of the raffle winners. This special afternoon will provide a philanthropic opportunity to support the Junior League of Morristown including its Scholarship Program, which has awarded over 160 Scholarships totaling more than $270,000 since 2022. For those who cannot attend, please consider a charitable donation.
