Enchanted Hour Read-Aloud In-Person
The Enchanted Hour Read-Aloud is a program that will be hosted weekly in the evenings. Adults will take turns reading from a chapter of a preselected book. At the end of the chapter, a discussion takes place on what they read along with their interpretation of the reading. Reading aloud offers multiple benefits from shared experiences and meaningful interpretation of readings to building community around literature and providing a new environment to socialize. No reading in advance is required. Students, faculty, and community members are welcome. Please register for this event through Taylor Memorial Library's posting.
Light refreshments will be served.
