Emma: Box Hill Recap | April 27th
Our latest gathering was a wonderful blend of literature and creativity! We met to discuss the significance of the iconic Box Hill scene in Emma, diving deep into its impact on the novel and its characters.
Following our lively discussion, Julie Hernandez, a talented instructor from Arlington Classics Academy, led us in a special watercolor workshop — a fitting tribute to Emma Woodhouse’s own artistic pursuits.
