Safe Harbor Community Book Club

Join us for Safe Harbor's first community book club!

This October, in honor of Domestic Violencec Awareness Month, we’re reading The Great Alone byKristin Hannah, a novel about resilience and survival. This book club meeting will be a space for meaningful discussion, reflection, and community support.

Special Activity: Coaster Creation Participants will create their own coasters using cork circles with nature-themed designs, filling them in with colorful pom poms. All materials will be provided—just bring your creativity!

While admission is free, we kindly ask attendees to bring a non-perishable pantry item to donate, wish list is below.

Light refreshments will be served.

Open to ages 13+
