And are you looking for fellow humans to meet and encourage learning and help inspire change?

In this book club, we encourage each other to learn more, discuss ideas, challenge each other and teach each other. Together we explore nonfiction, memoir and fiction books that we collectively choose. We may also follow up our book club meeting with a tea or a beer down the street.

Let's get Inspired!
