BOOKCLUB
When: Last Thursday of the month
Time: 8pm – 9.30pm
Where: Gallery Space, Upstairs in De Koffie Pot
Cost: Free
Book club (in association with The Academy) has been running since June 2016. Once a year the library issues us a list of books available. Each if us ticks the ones of interest to us. Each month the library then lends us a set of copies of the month’s book. We maintain a group journal in which we can write our comments on each book read and record an average score out of 10. Sometimes opinions and individual scores vary greatly which makes for all the more interest! Always a very relaxed gathering – no need to have finished or even to have read the book! Occasionally we have a club outing for a meal and a performance at the Courtyard.
2024 dates: 25th Jan, 29th Feb, 28th Mar, 25th Apr, 30th May, 27th June, 25th July, 29th Aug, 26th Sept, 31st Oct, 28th Nov, 26th Dec
