The statue of Jane at Winchester Cathedral was unveiled on October 16. It has had some controversy in the past. Has anyone gone and seen it in person?

This is a working weekend! I came downstate for an all weekend long volunteer event. I'm the team lead on this weekend's project, and if you know anything about me, you know this is perfect for my bossy personality! 😁 What are you doing this weekend? #Austen250 #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon

First, the goal was $5K USD and they raised over $1M USD. Second, you can still back the project (which I just did)! #Austen250 https://nerdist.com/article/jane-austen-board-game-endearment/
While the books are no longer on display, still an interesting read!

A Royal Copy of Pride and Prejudice Is Going on Display at Windsor Castle for the First Time
Windsor Castle is showcasing rare Jane Austen editions, including a copy of Pride and Prejudice once read aloud by Prince Albert to Queen Victoria, as part of global celebrations marking Austen’s 250th birthday.
Not only a review of AGM, but also (something I did not know) that Goucher College has the largest Austen collection outside of the UK. Looks like a local pilmagrage should be in order! #Austen250 #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian @romancelandia #JaneAusten
