Tuesday, June 16 at 6:00 p.m. Bloomsday Celebration. Come in costume, something reminiscent of the 1900 to 1920 era. Bowler hats, waistcoats, stiff collared shirts, dressy hats, flapper dresses and frocks are all welcome. The evening opens at Books & Books, 265 Aragon Avenue, Coral Gables where we will be treated to dramatic readings of excerpts from Ulysses by actors from the Actors' Playhouse. Then, there will be a short odyssey with flags, led by a kilted bagpiper around the block to John Martin's Restaurant where we shall celebrate in earnest.
