Ellison Center book Clubs
Our group meetings will be a time to process and reflect on what you’ve read. We offer a collaborative learning experience with fellow readers.
***These are NO-GUILT book clubs*** Jump onto the meetings regardless of whether you are “caught up” with the reading. Together we'll learn lots as we journey through the chapters with discussion. We also know you may only be able to jump on to part of the time slot (due to lunch break time, children's needs, etc) and that is also ok - join for whatever you can.
