Glen Ridge Recreation Presents: The Record Club



What is it?

The way we consume music these days is making the idea of the “album” as an art form extinct. Get together with other music enthusiasts to listen to and talk about some of the greatest records of all-time. You don’t have to be a club “member” or a Glen Ridge resident - just show up and join the conversation! Snacks and refreshments are welcome. This is a FREE event.



Album: Graceland by Paul Simon (1986)



When is it?

Wednesday, September 16th 7:00 PM



Where is it?

The Glen Ridge Senior-Community Center (Train Station), 228 Ridgewood Avenue, Glen Ridge, NJ
