The second half of the Contemporary Club’s 2019-2020 season was cancelled because of the growing concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. After a long break from many social activities, Club members are excited for the start of the new season and a second chance to hear from at least one of our previously planned speakers.
Leading the Club this year is Rachel Cohen, who is joined by several returning and new Board members as she continues to navigate through the challenges of this pandemic. If you have any questions or concerns about how the Club will be ensuring that our events are safe this year, please use the contact form on this page to reach our leadership team.
