Join The W.H. Stark House Classics Book Club this fall as we explore two classic works of literature on select Thursday evenings from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Inspired by Miriam Lutcher Stark’s book club founded in 1893, this club will meet quarterly to explore titles related to the collection at The W.H. Stark House.

In 2024, book club discussion will cover “Evangeline: the story of Acadie,” Henry Longfellow’s romance poem about the migration of French Acadians into Louisiana, which Miriam Stark’s book club first read together in 1898. Another session will feature a discussion of “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley, one of Miriam’s favorite authors.

The W.H. Stark House Classics Book Club is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
