Book Circle: Connecting Through Conversations
All the Beauty in the World the Metropolitan Museum of Art
A book circle to connect as a community in a meaningful way and create a safe space to expand and deepen our understanding of the world around us. Registration required.
Join us each month in reading the chosen book and coming together in meaningful conversation that expands understanding, self-reflection, learning. and openness.
Together, we will share perspectives in safe and respectful ways inspired by books that provide expansive experiences that support the transformation of our ways of knowing, being, and living in community.
In January, we will be reading, All the Beauty in the World the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me by Patrick Bringley. "Only a few select people enjoy unrestricted access to every nook and cranny of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and among them are the guards who keep a watchful eye on the two-million-square-foot treasure house. For Bringley, the Museum was a temporary refuge that became his home away from home for a decade. Here he explores his tribe: the artworks and their creators and the subculture of museum guards. Though Bringley gradually returned to the larger world, here he explores the Museum's hidden wonders-- and the people who make it tick." -Publisher's website
