The Wilkes English Department invites you to an academic panel and ball in honor of Jane Austen’s 250th birthday! The event will feature a keynote address by Austen Scholar Dr. Juliette Wells, remarks by English Professor Dr. Helen H. Davis, History Associate Professor Dr. Amy Sopcak-Joseph, and Dance Director Stefan Zubal.
Following the academic panel, Director Zubal will lead a dance demonstration and teach attendees a Regency-era dance! We will also have a reception with tea, cake, and other refreshments.
