DC Salon: Did irony destroy your soul?
Every month Liberties Journal hosts a Salon at which attendees together ask and answer a provocative question inspired by a recent or upcoming essay in Liberties.
This month’s DC Salon will be Friday, December 11th. Doors will open at 6:30 PM, the Salon will begin at 7:00 and last for an hour.
The Salon theme Did irony destroy your soul? was inspired by Jed Perl's essay "A Genial Demolitionist" which was published in the Fall 2026 issue of Liberties.
For newcomers and regulars alike, please feel free to peruse the Liberties Salon: Rules of Engagement in order to familiarize yourself with the proceedings of the event.
