This season’s theme will be contemporary works of literary fiction that are being turned into operas. We’ll read three books that have recently been selected to be newly commissioned works.

All Book Club Meetings Start at 6:30pm

We are partnering with The Bookworm for Opera Book Club. Meetings will be hosted at the Bookworm and those registered can purchase the selected books at the Bookworm for a special 20% discount.
