Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce Ribbon Cutting + Founder Remarks at 4:45 p.m. \nRecovery.com is a growing\, mission-driven company dedicated to becoming the most trusted place on the internet to find addiction and mental health treatment options.

Today\, the platform helps more than one million people each month find recovery options and take meaningful steps toward healing. \nregistration:\n \n\n\nLoading…\n\n\n\n \ntransportation & parking:\n\n\n\nThe closest parking ramp is the Overture Center Parking Garage (318 W.

SUMMARY:DMI DEAI Book Club
DESCRIPTION:overview:\nFor our next ‘book club’ discussion we will be discussing the play ‘Ironbound’ by  Martyna Majok. \n“The play ‘Ironbound’ is about a Polish immigrant woman- Darya. She has come to America with her husband Maks\, when they are both still young\, in their early 20’s. They come seeking the American dream\, a better life\, a home\, stability\, a comfortable living. What they get is hardship\, strain on their relationship\, and broken dreams. ‘Ironbound’ is an amazingly good script\, and deceptively challenging. With immigration issues roiling our culture\, with women continuing to fight for equity and agency\, with the struggles of just getting by in life not seeming to get any easier\, this seems to be an excellent vehicle for a Frank Theater production.” Mary Aalgaard \nAt our book club meeting on Tuesday\, Jan. 13th at Noon\,  we will have a pre-viewing discussion about this play. You do not need to have read\, seen or know anything about the play to attend this discussion. \nJoin here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/k1dWaM-SQaicdp3TrJMxvQ \nWe are planning to attend the play together at our very own Forward Theater\, sometime between Weds\, Feb 4 – Thurs\, Feb 12\, 2026. \nEmail Madelyn or Steve if you are interested in attending the play at Forward Theater. \n

SUMMARY:DMI DEAI Book Club
DESCRIPTION:This book club has been meeting for about four years now\, reading a variety of books. \nThis month the group will discuss these 7 questions about the book: ‘Between the World and Me’ by Ta-Nehisi Coates. \n\nHow would you describe the overall tone of Between the World and Me? What emotions are expressed by Coates in his writing\, and what emotions did you feel while reading it?\nDiscuss the title of the book and what Coates may have meant by it.\nThe book is written in the form of a letter from Coates to his 15-year-old son\, Samori. Why do you think Coates chose to structure the book in this way? How did this format affect your reading?\nThe book was written in 2015\, shortly after the police officer responsible for the death of Michael Brown was exonerated of charges. What comparisons can you draw between that time and now? What has changed since then?\nOne broad concept that Coates introduces is that of “the Dream” and “Dreamers.” What do you understand these terms to mean? Why does Coates argue that he and other Black people are cut off from “the Dream”?\nDiscuss Coates’s definition of race\, and how it relates to racism.\nWhat surprised you most about the book? What will you take with you after reading it?\n\nQuestions take from: https://www.bookbub.com/blog \n*Please join us in the discussion on Tuesday\, even if you have not read or not finished reading the book. \nJoin the meeting here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/hHYrmaQJSrm2a5ibMPQ7Pg
