Workshops
Jane Austen Book Club: "Emma"
Over the course of six weeks, we'll immerse ourselves in the delightful world of Jane Austen's "Emma." We'll discuss the nuances of the novel's characters, plot twists and Austen's signature wit. Our journey will culminate in a special screening on the movie "Clueless," where we'll compare and contrast its modern adaptation with the original text. We'll explore themes of social class, romance and personal growth, making connections between the Regency Era and contemporary teen culture. Join us for an engaging exploration of literature, cinema and the timeless appeal of Austen's classic tale!
