Bartlett Book Club

Join us on Thursday, February 6th, for the next Bartlett Book Club meeting! Our book will be voted on during the previous month’s meeting (December 5th) but some of the possible choices are shown below.

Members are FREE! Join today here.

What?

The Bartlett Arboretum Book Club is a bimonthly program that brings readers and nature lovers together in one place.

What we read is up to you! At each meeting, members vote from a selected list of nature, plant, gardening, or wildlife themed books, to determine what the next one will be. If you would like to join the club, please have read this book before the meeting date; we will be discussing our thoughts on the book as a group then.

The nature aspect of this club won’t be only limited to the books we choose. At the meetings, there will be additional educational information provided, as well as tie-in plant activities. This will vary by meeting, but activities like book swaps, plant repotting, and propagation are all on the table! Guest speakers will also be brought to the meetings, to offer additional educational information or an important diverse perspective.

This is a low commitment book club. We hope the two months between meetings will give our members enough time to finish the book. But even if you don’t, it’s no problem. Come anyway and discuss what you did get to or hear what others have to say about the book.

Where?

We will meet in the Adult Classroom in the Silver Education Center. When the weather warms up again next year, we will meet outdoors within the arboretum grounds.

When?

This meeting is Thursday, February 6th, from 6:00pm to 7:30pm. We meet every other month, on the first Thursday of the month, unless otherwise noted.

Anything else?

Yes: wine and light snacks will be served.
