SUMMARY:Noontime Poetry Reading Society
DESCRIPTION:This group is for poetry readers\, poetry writers\, and the poetically curious alike! For the first half hour we take turns\, taking the lectern and reading aloud together from whole poetry collections. Whenever we finish one\, we vote on the next. We’re currently reading Women Poets from Antiquity to Now. The second half is devoted to poetic reflection\, news\, and the sharing of poems of your own (that you’ve written\, recently discovered\, or old faves). There’s a take–home prompt at the end for your own poetic practice. We hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Monday Morning Book Club: Atmosphere: A Love Story
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion of Atmosphere: A Love Story by Taylor Jenkins Reid\, an epic and emotionally charged novel set against the backdrop of NASA’s 1980s space shuttle program. The story follows Joan Goodwin\, a reserved physics and astronomy professor whose lifelong fascination with the stars propels her to apply for a groundbreaking opportunity to become one of the first women scientists in space. Selected from thousands of applicants\, Joan begins intense training at Johnson Space Center\, where she forms unexpected bonds with a diverse group of fellow astronaut candidates. As their friendships deepen and the pressures of spaceflight mount\, Joan discovers a passion—and a love—that challenges her understanding of herself and her place in the universe. When a mission changes everything\, Joan must confront the risks of ambition and the transformative power of love. Copies are available at the first-floor information desk. New members are always welcome!
