Animal Book Club

Third Thursdays at 6:00 pm at Botanical in Charlottesville

If you love reading and animals, Animal Book Club is for you! Through the lens of novels and nonfiction books, we’ll explore the ethics and emotions of our complex relationships with all creatures great and small. It’s more fun if you read the book in advance, but it’s absolutely not required. For details, please select a date.
