Great Books Discussion Group-480-350-5507- The Great Books
Foundation promotes reading, thinking, and the sharing of ideas for people of
all ages. Readers across the country reaffirm for themselves that discussing
their favorite book in a Great Books group is a powerful instrument for personal
growth and social engagement.
Come and nourish yourself with great literature on the
second and fourth Wednesday of each month at 7pm in the Youth Services Meeting
Room. Volunteers Kathy and Don Dietz serve as discussion leaders.
Participants provide their own copies of the works to be discussed.
