"One cannot have too large a party."
Please join your fellow Janeites for a festive and sociable lunch at Connolly's Pub (47th Street) with special guest Georgie Castilla of Duniath Comics.
Connolly's is offering us the use of their private room — which is located on the first floor and is wheelchair accessible — as well as a three-course prix fixe lunch menu for $45 per person including tax and tip.
The event features food, some fun discussions topics, and a talk from artist Georgie Castilla on the work of adapting Emma as a graphic novel and his other Jane-inspired projects.
You are not required to be a member of JASNA in order to attend this meeting. We look forward to connecting with fellow readers from around our community!
