About the event

Are you looking for the community of a book club without the commitment? Do you want to get more reading done, but you struggle to find the time and stay focused? Grab your book and come to our Read & Sip!

Grab a warm beverage, listen to some music, and read your book in the company of other avid readers. At the end, we will come together to share what we have been spending our time reading.

We will spend 45 minutes reading our books, and then the final 15 minutes will be dedicated to group discussion.

Registration is appreciated, but not required.
