  • James Joyce's book cover for A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

    James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

    Virtual

    Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! This week’s book is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce. Like much of James Joyce’s work, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a fictional re-creation of the Irish writer’s own life and early environment. The experiences of the novel’s young hero, Stephen Dedalus, unfold in astonishingly vivid scenes that seem freshly recalled from life and provide a powerful portrait of the coming of age of a young man of unusual intelligence, sensitivity, and character.

    ’60s Girl Groups, Part II

    Virtual (Zoom)

    Class Schedule: April 23, 28, & 30, 2026 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM
    The early 1960s began the girl group renaissance, with prominent Brill Building songwriters and emerging producers such as Phil Spector crafting hits. Motown would further set the template, with Martha and the Vandellas, the Velvettes, and the Marvelettes inspiring even British Invasion groups.  Perhaps no one defined the girl group aesthetic like the Supremes, one of the most successful (and influential) acts of the 1960s.

    Zoom Link will be provided upon registration.
