The Tolkien Society of Kansas City

We’re going to be meeting in the 21 room this month, rather than the main hall at Drexel.  The door is just around the corner from the main entrance, on Linwood.

Our May meeting was at the Irish Center at Drexal Hall.  Some of Bilbo's Seed Cake was enjoyed.  Our June meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 24, at 6:30 PM.  This month, we'll be at the Irish Center again, at Drexel Hall, at 3301 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City, MO.  Update!  We'll be in the 21 Room this month .  You are welcome to bring your own food or drink.  Parking is available in the lot to the South of the building. The reading for this month is The Two Towers, Book Four (book four being the second part of that volume) Chapters VIII - X, which will complete The Two Towers.

  We’re going to be meeting in the 21 room this month, rather than the main hall at Drexel.  The door is just around the corner from the main entrance, on Linwood. Also, there’s a performance in the main hall that day, if you’d like to see it, “We will be having a  performance of  You'll See... May 27th at 4pm and 7:30 pm if any of your members would be interested in attending before or after your meeting that night! The play is an adaptation of  Ulysses  by James Joyce aimed at audiences 8 years old and up - it's truly so charming!”

Updated!!!  We’re in the 21 room instead of main hall at Drexel. Our April meeting was at the Irish Center at Drexal Hall.  We had our usual excellent discussion.  Our May meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 27, at 6:30 PM.  This month, we'll be at the Irish Center again, at Drexel Hall, at 3301 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City, MO.  We’ll be in the 21 room.  You are welcome to bring your own food or drink.  Parking is available in the lot to the South of the building. The reading for this month is The Two Towers, Book Four (book four being the second part of that volume) Chapters V - VII.

Our March meeting was at the Lansing Library, where we did a Tolkien Reading for Tolkien Reading Day, with some members in costume.  Then we went back to the home of some local members for our usual discussion. Our April meeting will be held on Wednesday, April 22, at 6:30 PM.  This month, we'll be back at the Irish Center, at Drexel Hall, at 3301 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City, MO.  Enter through the main entrance on Baltimore. The reading for this month is The Two Towers, Book Four (book four being the second part of that volume) Chapters II - IV.

 Our March meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 25, at 6:00 PM, please note the earlier time! That also happens to be Tolkien Reading Day, which commemorates the destruction of The One Ring, and the fall of Sauron.  So we'll be celebrating with a program at Lansing Library, 730 1st Terrace, Lansing, KS.  We'll be doing a reading from Tolkien, and there will be crafts.  Everyone who can is encouraged to dress in costume, and be ready to answer questions about Tolkien and the books.  It will be a fun, casual program for all ages! If we end up having time and energy left after that, we'll be discussing the last two chapters of Book III and the first chapter of Book IV, in The Two Towers.  But if not, we'll save those chapters for April!
