The Blue Zones: Participatory Book Club In-Person
Take time this summer to dive into the lessons of The Blue Zones by joining a participatory book club. Each week, participants will read a chapter from the book then come ready to discuss. Following the discussions, participants will be invited to take part in an experience related to the book. Each session will take place on Tuesdays from 2:00-4:00pm at the Pruitt Campus Library. Copies of The Blue Zones are reserved for registered participants of this program and will be distributed at the first session on May 7.
