Summer Book Club Meetup + Picnic Potluck Aug 3 at 6:30pm

Hi all!

Let's do a summer edition of the Book Club with a Potluck Picnic at nearby Crab Park.

***UPDATE, Let's meet in front of the Dominion Building at 207 West Hastings Street at Cambie. It's the old historic building with a red rooftop. We can walk to the park from there together (as some people are not familiar with the park and how to access it).

If you arrive later, just meet us in the park. I'll bring a sign to indicate a Book Club Meetup is happening. If it's raining then we'll be at the studio in 1012-207 West Hastings for an indoor picnic.

You are also invited to bring a friend with you. This Meetup is FREE and is a safe and inclusive space.

We will be discussing Birdie by Tracey Lindberg

"A darkly comic and moving novel about the universal experience of recovering from wounds of the past, informed by the lore and knowledge of Cree traditions. Bernice Meetoos, a Cree woman, leaves her home in Northern Alberta following tragedy and travels to Gibsons, BC. Part road trip, dream quest and travelogue, the novel touches on the universality of women's experience, regardless of culture or race."

If you need to borrow a copy of either book, you can do so from the VPL set that I have available, just email icoaat@gmail.com to arrange a pick up time.

Please let us know of any food restrictions you have as well, so that we can make sure that there is an assortment of food for everyone. I'll bring some refreshments in a cooler for us to enjoy!
