Join us for our Silent Stories silent book club on Wednesday, September 9 at 6:30pm at Mosaic Wine Bar!

Bring whatever book you want, and we will start with an hour of quiet reading time on your own. After the reading portion ends, attendees have the chance to talk with others about what they are reading or to socialize generally. The Library will provide a non-alcoholic drink for each attendee if they wish, though you are welcome to purchase your own food and/or drink from Mosaic!
