The Jane Austen Society of North America is dedicated to the enjoyment and appreciation of Jane Austen and her writing. Our mission is to foster among the widest number of readers the study, appreciation, and understanding of Jane Austen’s works, her life, and her genius.

The Metropolitan Kansas City Region covers western Missouri and the entire state of Kansas. We have nearly 100 members who come together throughout the year to celebrate Jane Austen. Our group includes a wide range of ages and interests, from film buffs to scholars. No matter how you were first introduced to the author’s works, you’re welcome to join us and share our passion for all things Austen.
