BLOOMSDAY at the GAELIC LEAGUE
20th Annual James Joyce Bloomsday Celebration
The Irish Cultural Forum invites
you to join us once again as Detroit
joins devotees in cities around the globe to celebrate Bloomsday, that day in
1904 made famous in Joyce's Ulysses when Leopold Bloom sets out on his perambulations
around Dublin. For those who can't get to Dublin on Bloomsday, the local celebration
offers readings from "Ulysses" and other works by Joyce, spontaneous
Irish music by the Perkins Family and master of ceremonies is Donald E. Morse.
This year we will be having a sale of used books about Ireland. If anyone would
like to donate some, they may bring them along to Bloomsday. They may range from
paperbacks to coffee-table. Tapes, CDs, and videos are also welcome.$5.00 donation
for members and $7.00 for non-members. Food and drink available at the cash bar.
