Join us for a Commonwealth Club Salon discussion on April 30

This session will focus on the themes of our recent program about Napoleon's impact on Europe and Europe's reaction to Napoleon. The event is being hosted by the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco (595 Market Street, 2nd Floor, the Gold Room). Refreshments will be served starting at 4:45pm, with the discussion starting at 5:15pm. The cost is $8 for members and $15 for non-members. Details may be found here.

What is a salon? A salon is a gathering of stimulating people under the roof of an inspiring hostess or host partly to amuse one another, partly to refine their taste and increase their knowledge through conversation and readings. Intellectual salons have been around practically as long as there have been intellectuals.
