Casual Book Discussion Club

A book discussion club about art and community. Participants need to read the book assigned to the group each time it meets; however, they may do so casually as the meetings are quite lax. This club gives you the chance to try reading a book that interests you but you may think is too difficult, and offers a space to share your thoughts with others.
