When was the last time you had a genuine conversation—an experience not of mere self-assertion but of speaking and listening as though you had something both to offer and to receive? Our habits of language define us, but the pace of our lives is such that the simple gestures of listening carefully and speaking prudently are amazingly rare. The Friday Night Salon aims at being an alternative to the urban rush that denies the civilizing graces of community. We begin with good food and drink, then take our places in a circle for discussion about a variety of relevant, substantial topics.
Admission: Members $55; Nonmembers $65. Per evening: $15 & $20
Space limited—guaranteed seating by prepaid tuition only
