Once a month, the Society for the Advancement of Social Studies meets for a history lecture. Sound a little boring? Well, what if they call themselves SASS and meet at a bar with themed drink specials? Yeah, that’s more like it.

Mara Wilson became a child star thanks to “Matilda,” but she’s done a lot more since then. Wilson will host the launch party for her memoir, cheekily titled “Where Am I Now?,” with readings and a talk about her experiences on movie sets (hopefully with some doozies from “Mrs. Doubtfire”). She’ll also sign copies of the book bought during the event. The event shares its date with Roald Dahl’s 100th birthday — there might be cake! $15, Sept. 13, 8 p.m., Liberty Hall at Ace Hotel, 20 E. 29th St. ARTS
