Well, it’s not a book club—there’s no homework. It’s an opportunity to gather with other book lovers, offline, to read and meet people without the requirement of reading the same book.

Sunday, February 23rd. The party starts at 3pm and will officially last until Walsh closes at 6pm.

This time, yes—there is a small ticket cost that includes your first glass of wine (alcoholic or otherwise) and helps us keep the event going.

After all the love our first reading party received, we thought about how to make it a sustainable, recurring event. The cost of your ticket helps us pay for the space and support our local businesses.

Bring something to read! And feel free to bring a book or two you’re ready to pass along for the book swap. Any book donations that are not claimed will find their way into Walsh’s Free Little Library to be discovered by someone new.

We’re hosting the event at a local winery, so there will be wine, as well as non-alcoholic options, and snacks available for purchase.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to welcome@heygathered.com.
