Red Tent Book Discussion Group

Our book discussion group has about 10 to 12 core members, but other people do occasionally attend. We read both fiction and non-fiction, and choose the books by consensus, although everyone is encouraged to suggest titles. There is no formal pattern to the discussion, and new participants are welcome.

The group normally meets on the first Saturday of each month at 10 a.m. to Noon in the CLA Room at the HUU Building.
