Book Club
The Cedarhurst Book Club, held every other month at 12 noon, is free of charge and open to the public. Participants are invited to bring a brown bag lunch and join in the discussion about the featured book, usually selected for the art-related theme. Book Club is held at the Mitchell House on the grounds at Cedarhurst Center for the Arts (unless otherwise noted). A book mark identifying the six books for the calendar year is made available on this website, mailed to Cedarhurst members, and made available at local libraries and book stores.
The scheduled books may be available for loan through C.E. Brehm Memorial Public Library. Book Club attendees can purchase the Book Club designated titles at King City Books (Mt. Vernon, IL) with a 10% discount.
