Come join us as we discuss how to read poems. We’ll learn about the different kinds of literary analysis and apply them to famous poems and poems that are relevant to older people, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other disenfranchised groups. Examples will include several Shakespearean sonnets, a T.S. Eliot poem, and an Anne Sexton poem.  Please bring a writing instrument. We will provide copies of the poems and sheets with questions that will help you learn more easily. 

Refreshments will be provided, and a small donation is asked to contribute to our use of the Fellowship. You're also welcome to join a group at a local diner afterward to continue the camaraderie!

Although August does not have a national holiday, it is a month of famous birthdays, world changing inventions, historical events, and cultural milestones that shaped the world. Two atomic bombs dropped in 1945 ended World War II, and Woodstock became iconic and the defining pinnacle of the 1960s counterculture movement. After 40 years of delay after the Seneca Falls Convention, the 19th Amendment finally granted women the right to vote. Come join a core group of hearty attendees to view videos of these and other historical events and discuss your memories.

Come join us when we discuss coming out-- what it is for us and how coning out has (and hasn't) changed over the years. We'll also share our coming out stories.

Snacks and drinks are provided. And you are invited to go out to continue the discussion at a local diner. A small donation is asked to help pay the rent.

Enjoy good fun & food at a reasonable price!  We’ll meet at the restaurant located at 182 Ridgedale Ave in Florham Park.  Please rsvp by Friday, July 24, to Gordon Sauer at[email protected].

The oldest form of communication is storytelling, and we are going to build a story together! Think improv meeting Mad Libs and you’re getting the idea! 

You wanna be starting something? Join GAAMC for what may be beautifully strange or perhaps strangely beautiful as we build a story together from literally nothing.
