Book Group

The Baldwin Street Book Group gets together every 4 to 6 weeks for a casual discussion about a book we have all read. Every group member is encouraged to take a turn in making a book selection. Consequently we have read books with a variety of themes, genres and settings.

We meet on Wednesday evening from 7:00 - 8:30 PM. Although anyone is invited to join, all the members right now are women.
