📚 Dayton Society of Artists Book Club: The Street of Wonderful Possibilities
📅 Thursday, November 19, 2026
⏰ 6:00–8:00 PM
📍 Dayton Society of Artists
48 High Street, Dayton, OH 45403
Join the Dayton Society of Artists Book Club for a conversation about The Street of Wonderful Possibilities: Whistler, Wilde & Sargent in Tite Street by art historian Devon Cox.
Tite Street in Chelsea, West London, became home to an extraordinary collection of artists, writers, and cultural figures, including Oscar Wilde, John Singer Sargent, James McNeill Whistler, and Radclyffe Hall.
Through their lives and connections, the book explores Tite Street as a center of artistic experimentation, intellectual exchange, rivalry, and social change—from the Aesthetic Movement and women’s suffrage to the rapidly changing cultural world of late Victorian London.
The discussion will be led by Kathleen Caffrey, Dayton Society of Artists Board Member and Historian, who will guide the group through the artists and writers of Tite Street, their relationships and rivalries, and the cultural world that brought them together.
📖 No need to read the book in advance! Whether you’ve finished it, just started it, or simply want to join a conversation about art, artists, and cultural history, everyone is welcome.
Free and open to the public.
