Lunch@65West -- 1916: The Irish Rebellion

Lunch@65West, the Union League Club of Chicago's Authors Group, WTTW-11, and the University of Notre Dame invite you to a special luncheon when we welcome Irish Consul General Orla McBreen for a partial preview and discussion of the new documentary narrated by Oscar-nominated actor Liam Neeson, 1916: The Irish Rebellion.

This documentary memorializes the events in Dublin on Easter Week a century ago, when an insurrection started a process that culminated in an independent Irish state and accelerated the disintegration of the British Empire, bringing about new and lasting relationships among the United States, Ireland and Britain.

Our event begins with registration at 11:30 a.m., followed by luncheon and the program at noon and adjournment by 1:30 p.m. The cost is $45 per person, inclusive of tax and service charges. PLEASE NOTE: the Union League Club of Chicago maintains a "business casual" dress code -- i.e., no jeans, denim or athletic wear, please. For more information, please call the Public Affairs office at (312) 435-5946.
