About the Author

A Walk Through Salem is the creation of  Christopher Jon Dowgin, a local artist familiar to many of you for the last 15 years. You might of seen his paintings in various cafes and such or been lucky enough to see him paint live in many venues supporting bands such as Bogus Quartet or Capital B. Either small easel, large chalkboards, or the dramatic 6 foot by 9 foot Theatrical Productions. If you are careful, you might spy him in town drawing on the wharf or under a street light on the not so old Cobblestones of Essex Street. Feel free to stop him at anytime to discuss this and more. There is always a welcome seat waiting for you.

Also Chris Dowgin is also the owner of Dowgin Industries, several small businesses including Norge Forge Illumination Studios, Agape Intimate Dinning, and Docspond Counseling Services. His largest project up to date is the erection of Vingolf Banquet Hall to be built in Manchester-by-the-Sea. A Walk Through Salem is the merger of the artistic with the merger with the profit margin for the town it is based in. Look what a small mouse did for Orlando! Like Salem, Orlando had seasonal tourism, but a children's story....Changed it all!
