THE RED BOOK CLUB
The Red Book Club is a free online book club and speaker programme exploring Jungian depth psychology, mythology, alchemy, art, literature and the imagination.
After reading each book, we meet for an online group discussion.
Guest authors, academics and artists are sometimes invited to speak about a particular book or subject. Previous speakers have included Jennifer Higgie, Amy Hale, Stephen Ellcock, Carly Mountain, Elvia Wilk, Gary Bobroff, Patrick Harpur, Ann McCoy and Danny Scopelliti.
​
The club began during lockdown with a small group of eight people and now has over 800 members across the world. It is open to anyone interested in these subject areas. There is no obligation to read every book or attend every session. Just join in when a book or speaker grabs your interest.
​
The Red Book Club is free to attend. If you enjoy a particular session, one-off support is very welcome. If you value the club as an ongoing space and would like to help sustain it, you can become a supporter for £3/month or £30/year.
Support helps cover the time, preparation, admin and platform costs involved in keeping the club going.

NEXT BOOK / MEETING
​
​​​​
HOW TO ENTER THE ART WORLD
with guest author Hattie Judah
​
In our next meet up we will be joined by guest author Hettie Judah to discuss her new book How to Enter the Art World.
​
This is a practical book, and it will speak directly to artists. But I think the wider questions it raises are relevant to many of us: how creative lives are sustained, how people return to a field after time away, how we find our place, and what success can mean when life is complicated.
​
How to Enter the Art World is described as a grown-up guide for any artist whose life is complicated, demanding and human. Informed by years spent working with artists and dozens of candid interviews, it offers insight, ideas and encouragement for anyone trying to find, or re-find, their way in the art world.​
Hettie Judah is a writer, and curator of the acclaimed exhibition Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood. The author of numerous books on art, she is well known as a critic, columnist, broadcaster and advocate for artists' rights.
