If so, Books and Brews is for you!

What is Books and Brews?

Books and Brews is a monthly book group that spotlights contemporary social, political and economic issues we encounter as citizens and volunteers.

What is the format for the book group meetings?

Books and Brews meetings are held at different bars and restaurants throughout the Boston area. After introductions, a discussion follows where volunteers have a chance to get to know one another and also discuss different aspects of the book. Participants will engage in meaningful discussions regarding the issues addressed in the book and what, as volunteers, they can do to actively address the subject at hand.

As a new feature for the 2007 Books and Brews calendar, we will provide Books and Brews partner programs where volunteers can participate in a discussion with a speaker well versed on the subject of that month’s book, or go on a tour of the area of Boston where the book is based. This new feature will increase engagement and heighten the fun!
