After extensively volunteering at all the workshops, after-school tutoring, and in-schools projects that 826LA has to offer, did you ever wish that there was a program for adults (or aspiring adults) that allowed them to congregate with other creative minds? Did you? Did you? Wish no more, 826LA has brought back The Book Club at both its Echo Park and Venice locations.

We are reading one book a month. Our March book club meetings are soon approaching and you still have two long, full weeks to read either (or both, if ambition strikes) books. Mondays on the West side, Thursdays on the East side!
