Programs

Silent Book Club is a global community of readers and introverts with more than 500 chapters in 50 countries around the world led by local volunteers where members gather in public at bars, cafes, bookstores, libraries, online and in our case, the VBC to read together in quiet camaraderie.

Often with traditional book clubs there's the scramble to finish the selected book, and the pressure to have something smart to say. Wouldn't it be great to have a book club where you could just enjoy books, friends, and maybe a snack—without any homework?

Join us at SBC where there's no assigned reading. All readers are welcome—ebooks, audiobooks, textbooks, comic books... it's BYOBook. Friends and strangers gather at a set time and location, share what they're reading, and settle in for an hour of silent, sustained reading. At the end of the hour, attendees can socialize—or not!

Silent Book Club meets weekly on Thursdays from 6:30-7:30pm.
