Black Readers Meet Up

Connect with other Black readers in NYC! Join us for an intimate evening of books, conversation, and community. Bring a book by a Black author or a read that’s shaped your understanding of Black identity, culture, diaspora, love, or belonging. We’ll swap recs, share reflections, and meet fellow readers building their reading lives with depth and intention. 🎟️ Ticket includes light bites and guided programming Facilitator Xenia: Reader first, community builder always.
