New Book Group: Poetry Book Club

Join us for Poetry Book Club, a relaxed, welcoming space to enjoy poems together and share what they spark in you. Each month, we’ll read a selection of poems from a chosen book and then gather to chat about favorite lines, themes, and impressions. We meet on the fourth Thursday of the month at 6:00 p.m. Join us in the Aldrich Room or online via Zoom.

Our first meeting will be on Thursday, March 26, at 6:00 p.m., and our first book will be Devotions by Mary Oliver.
