Chapters in Common

Where
Classroom

Join us for a new kind of book club experience! 

During each session, we’ll listen to a portion of an audiobook together in a relaxed group setting and pick the book for the next meeting. Feel free to bring along a simple craft project or enjoy a cup of coffee while you listen. 

Between sessions, participants can finish the audiobook on their own before we meet again to discuss the story, listen to the next selection, and enjoy some creative time together.
