Literary Salon

3rd Thursday of the Month, 10am-12pm 

Facilitated by Andrea Markowitz, join other enthusiasts as we open discussion on a new topic each month! Choose any book, or other medium (film, music, stage play, podcast, art, etc.) that you feel really represents or relates to that month’s topic. We’ll discuss how the theme plays a significant role in the work you’ve selected, as well as anything else you’d like to share about it with the group. See below for topics and descriptions of the upcoming discussions! 

A voracious reader and writer of fiction and nonfiction, Andrea earned degrees in English, music and psychology, and explored a variety of careers in education and writing. After “retiring” she discovered her true calling is to write plays and musicals. Her dedication to writing for the stage was acknowledged recently with an ariZoni Award for best new script for “Fair Game,” a musical satire based on a true story about fake news! 

March 16th- Topic: Adventure 

While the word “adventure” typically conjures images of exploring new and exciting, and possibly hazardous terrain, it can also refer to taking off into other kinds of unknown territory: moving to a different country, switching jobs or careers, even using a dating app! 

Immersing ourselves in someone else’s adventure is an excellent way to vicariously experience something we ourselves may be reluctant to do. 

Choose any medium with a plot that says “adventure” to you, and tell us what about that type of adventure appeals or perhaps does not appeal to you.
