This year we have an extra special treat for Bloomsday: We will have a staged reading of the play within the book! Jeff Pollock of both The Scoop Ice Cream and Hotdogs and Changing Channels fame will be directing. We still need performance readers! If you are interested, please get in touch with Jeff. He can be reached at The Scoop or by phone (910) 409-5047.

This year’s festivities will commence at 4:30 PM on Saturday June 16th at Old Books on Front St. The Scoop will be serving a hotdog inspired by Ulysses, maybe a Bloomsday Ice Cream, and of course we will be purchasing delicacies from Sugar on Front St!

Bloomsday celebrates James Joyce’s contribution to literature by annually honoring June 16th, the day of the events chronicled in his masterwork, Ulysses.
