Banned Book Club

Discover the stories that challenge norms, spark conversations, and push boundaries with the Banned Book Club!

When: Every 4th Friday of the month, 6-8 PM
Where: The Gilded Page, 1280 Liberty S. KCMO

Each month, we dive into the world of banned and challenged books, exploring the stories that have been censored, questioned, or misunderstood. There’s no assigned book—members are invited to select a title from our Banned Books Reading List or bring their own pick to the discussion.

At our meetups, we’ll share our thoughts, discuss why these books were challenged, and celebrate the importance of intellectual freedom and diverse perspectives in literature. Whether it’s a classic novel, a contemporary read, or a hidden gem, your choice is yours to explore and share.

All are welcome, whether you’re a seasoned reader or just curious about the stories that shape and challenge our world. Join us for thought-provoking discussions, passionate conversations, and a welcoming community that values the freedom to read.

Let’s turn the page on censorship—together!
