Join us behind the scenes for our Lecture à la table. Reading at the table never fails to excite us. As we immerse ourselves in reading aloud for the first time, we delve into discussions about the story, the characters, and our emotional reactions. It is a moment that we want to share with you.
We welcome you at 6 pm with drinks and nibbles. (See the schedule of the night below)
