A Visit to Mont Saint-Michel
Presented by Jacqueline Thomas
An AFL Speaker Series Event

March 3rd, 2024 | 4:00 – 5:00 pm
Free for AFL Members | $10 for non-members

Join Jackie as she takes us on a pictorial journey to this UNESCO World Heritage site that is visited by more 3 million people each year. She sojourned there for a week with other pilgrims and saw the Mont-Saint-Michel from the inside. The granite island is situated on the border of Normandy and Brittany in northwestern France along the English Channel. This 11th-century Benedictine abbey was an important pilgrimage of faith during the Middle Ages. Barely bigger than it’s gothic abbey, the island is cut off from land twice a day at high tide.

Speaker Series: The Real Cyrano de Bergerac

The Real Cyrano de Bergerac
Presented by Carol Mackay
Free for Members | $10 for Non-Members* REGISTER BELOW
Sunday, April 7th, 4:00 – 5:00 PM

Cyrano de Bergerac was a Parisian writer who lived to age thirty-six in seventeenth century France. He wrote what were perhaps the most daring works of the century, becoming a precursor of the Enlightenment who championed the new science and challenged all the repressive hierarchies of his day. His best known works are the witty, humorous, and futuristic Imaginary Voyages to the Moon and the Sun, which became a model for the philosophical voyages of the eighteenth century. In addition to discussing his life and times, we will also explore what it was about Cyrano that inspired one of the world’s most enduring and beloved plays.
