9am : Central West End Walking Tour Led by Tom Mitchell
The Williams family first settled in the Central West End and the neighborhood became important to Tennessee's work. Beginning and ending at The Link Auditorium, this walking tour will visit neighborhood sites that relate to his life and writing. Along the way, we will hear Williams's own words describing familiar locations. The tour will end with a READING of "God in the Free Ward," a newly published story written in 1934 about Anna Wilkins, hospitalized with a puzzling illness, that reveals Tennessee Williams's feelings for his sister Rose before her confinement in a mental hospital.
