Join the French Creek Arts Collective for the first Cookbook Club meeting! Here's how it works: borrow a cookbook from the library, choose a recipe to try at home, then bring the dish and the cookbook to our potluck gathering. This is a great opportunity to try new foods, find new inspiration, and meet other cooking enthusiasts! Please bring dishes and flatware for yourself and your guests to reduce waste!

Traditional book clubs can be exhausting and too much pressure at times. For this book club, you pick what you want to read based on a monthly theme. The meeting is held in the top floor community space. This month we decided to pick two themes. You can read (or listen to) a book that matches either theme, a separate book for each theme, or a book that falls under both themes.
The themes for June are: Caldecott Award Winners/Honors and Nostalgia
About the Caldecott Award: https://www.ala.org/awards/books-media/randolph-caldecott-medal-1
For Nostalgia, any book that you have fond memories of reading qualifies.
