Utica Bloomsday Pub Crawl – a Culture interest event taking place on 2019-06-15 11:30:00 in United States
James Joyce’s monumental classic Ulysses (some say the greatest English-language novel of all time) takes place all on one day in Dublin, Ireland – June 16, 1904. The book’s main character, Leopold Bloom, walks through the streets of Dublin, stopping in pubs and meeting all sorts of characters. The book was published in 1922. Then in 1954, five Irishmen started a tradition that is still going on today in countries as far-ranging as Hungary, Italy, Australia, and the Czech Republic, as well as many cities in the USA. Readings, dramatizations, bike races, and pub crawls are some of the festivities they host. Then in 2017, Utica, NY, joined in with a pub crawl of our own. It was so much fun, we are planning our Third Annual Utica Bloomsday Pub Crawl on Saturday, June 15, 2019. We will begin at the Irish Cultural Center of the Mohawk Valley in Utica’s brewery district and proceed to five other pubs along Varick Street, sipping pints as we listen to dramatic readings from Ulysses by local actors, talks by scholars of Irish literature and history, and live traditional music by Craobh Dugan. Drinks will be available for purchase. All participants will receive a special commemorative T-shirt and a passport stamped at each stop to be eligible for prize drawings at the end of the crawl.
