The Book(ish) Club is a relaxed, creative book club where people come together to listen, make, and share. There is no reading to do in advance and no pressure to speak. You can simply turn up, listen to short readings around a shared theme, enjoy some creative making, and spend time in good company.
First session Saturday 7 February, 1:30 – 4pm
Woodston Library, 68 Orchard St, Peterborough PE2 9AL
