Armed with only a camera, a sense of humor and a host of frequent flyer miles, Mathew Duman embarked on a “grotesque safari”, traveling to 10 universities around the country to photograph the unique grotesques and gargoyles roosting on their academic buildings. Mathew found that this sculpture makes its home within a style of architecture known as Collegiate Gothic which was popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. He has collected his findings in his new book called: “The Grotesque 10: Amazing Architectural Sculpture from Ten American Colleges and Universities “ and presents a selection in this illustrated lecture, giving you a taste of the variety of ornament, history and humor these campuses have to offer. This program will be presented through Zoom.

Certified Silver KonMari consultant Christine Thorn of Connecticut will be presenting through Zoom, an informative, in-depth and entertaining talk on Marie Kondo and the KonMari Method™ of tidying and decluttering.
In the presentation lasting 60 to 90 minutes, Thorn will discuss: the life-changing benefits of the KonMari Method’s category-by-category system of tidying, how the KonMari Method™ focuses on keeping only those items which bring joy to your life rather than focusing on what needs to be eliminated and the importance of the fundamental KonMari question: Does this spark joy?
Detailed explanations of the KonMari Method’s six principles and how this method can lead you on a journey of self discovery.
A question-and-answer period will follow.
