The German Virtuosa
Online Zoom Event -
She was not only a divine pianist, talented composer and successful teacher, but also a mother of 8 and the main breadwinner for her family. In the very male dominated 19th century, German superwoman Clara Schumann did it all while juggling a 61 year concert career that made her internationally famous. Join German historian Anette Isaacs for an intimate look at the life of the exceptional Clara Virtuosa!

About
The 1501 Ellinwood Street library building is the realization of a longheld dream of the library board, staff and community partners. Located in the heart of downtown Des Plaines, the four story, 82,000 square foot building represents the community's commitment to reading, lifelong learning, and a center for family activities. A grand central staircase and large windows provide a wealth of natural light and illuminate the building at night.
