About the event
Join us for an afternoon of sunshine, stories, and sweet treats at our Books & Bites Community Picnic! Whether you're coming with friends or attending solo, this relaxed gathering is all about enjoying good books, meeting new people, and embracing a slow summer afternoon together. Bring your current read and your favourite baked good to share while we enjoy crafts, conversation, and a little bookish shopping.
Throughout the afternoon, you'll be able to browse a selection of new summer reads, create a few fun take-home crafts, and spend time connecting with fellow readers in a welcoming, low-pressure environment.
Baked Good Swap
Bring your favourite homemade or store-bought baked treat to share with the group! Participation is a fun way to sample something new and swap recipes with fellow attendees!
