Joan of Arc Book Club Feb 8, 10:00amCafé NOMABook: "Lost and Found in Paris" by Lian Dolan, a novel that features Joan of Arc and a mystery involving stolen art. The story follows Joan Blakely, an art historian who accepts a job to courier a portfolio of Joan of Arc sketches from a museum in Pasadena to a collector in Paris. The sketches are stolen, and Joan sets out to recover them. The author calls the book “an art history scavenger hunt”.

Note: those who wish to go to the art museum after the book club are welcome to do so. We will visit the gallery with the medieval/Renaissance artwork, and there will be a brief art and Joan themed scavenger hunt for those who wish to participate (as a nod to our protagonist in “Lost and Found in Paris”)
