SUMMARY:Listen up Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this read-aloud book club at the awesome Philosopher’s House! For this read-aloud book club\, no one has to read anything in advance\, and there’s nothing to prep – just show up as you are\, grab a snack or tea at the counter\, and enjoy the weirdly wholesome community of a read aloud. I read the first part of a “classic novel” aloud for the group (one I’ve never read before!) – this would be perfect for listener crafts\, mending clothes\, or coloring books – but there will also be socializing before and after\, and of course LITERATURE DISCUSSION (if you like). \nHow to register: Drop-in (feel free to bring a portable craft project\, textile project\, or?? to work on during this meetup) \nLocation: Living room/Fireplace\, 1st floor \nCost: 5.00 donation to teahouse nonprofit OR food/beverage purchase. All are welcome regardless of ability to donate/purchase. \nOrganizer: Emily Katt at Emilyskatt@gmail.com \n\n \nFollow/join the Listen Up Book Club page on FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61585915229733

SUMMARY:Death Café (registration required)
DESCRIPTION:Description: A group-led\, free-form space in which we’ll drink tea\, eat cake\, and talk about death. Simply bring yourself and your curiosity. \nHow to register: Email or text instructor directly to save your seat \nLocation: Classroom/Meditation space\, 2nd floor\n\nOrganizer: Amber Walls\nPhone number: (276) 608-5382\nEmail: amberwalls2003@gmail.com\n\nBio: I recently graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from ETSU. In my last year of college\, I started working as a hospital chaplain at JCMC. My current vocation\, paired with my former role as a funeral director’s assistant\, has ignited a passion to open up casual public discussion about death and dying to demystify the one thing we are all guaranteed to face.

SUMMARY:Listen up Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this read-aloud book club at the awesome Philosopher’s House! For this read-aloud book club\, no one has to read anything in advance\, and there’s nothing to prep – just show up as you are\, grab a snack or tea at the counter\, and enjoy the weirdly wholesome community of a read aloud. I read the first part of a “classic novel” aloud for the group (one I’ve never read before!) – this would be perfect for listener crafts\, mending clothes\, or coloring books – but there will also be socializing before and after\, and of course LITERATURE DISCUSSION (if you like). \nHow to register: Drop-in (feel free to bring a portable craft project\, textile project\, or?? to work on during this meetup) \nLocation: Living room/Fireplace\, 1st floor \nCost: 5.00 donation to teahouse nonprofit OR food/beverage purchase. All are welcome regardless of ability to donate/purchase. \nOrganizer: Emily Katt at Emilyskatt@gmail.com \n\n \nFollow/join the Listen Up Book Club page on FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61585915229733

SUMMARY:Death Café (registration required)
DESCRIPTION:Description: A group-led\, free-form space in which we’ll drink tea\, eat cake\, and talk about death. Simply bring yourself and your curiosity. \nHow to register: Email or text instructor directly to save your seat \nLocation: Classroom/Meditation space\, 2nd floor\n\nOrganizer: Amber Walls\nPhone number: (276) 608-5382\nEmail: amberwalls2003@gmail.com\n\nBio: I recently graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from ETSU. In my last year of college\, I started working as a hospital chaplain at JCMC.
