Silent Reading Parties

Dates / Times / Locations:

Wednesday, June 24th from 5:30pm – 6:30pm

700 Trapp Hill Road, Stowe, VT 05672

Gather in the Trapp Family Wedding Meadow for an hour of reading and listening to the gentle sounds of harp music.  Judi Byron will bring her 40-stringed Celtic harp to the occasion and play a mix of Celtic, classical, folk and standards to accompany your reading.

Bring your book, a chair or blanket, some water and a hat and enjoy the mountains, the highland cows, the gorgeous gardens and beautiful scenery.  In case of inclement weather, Friday, the 26th will be the alternate date-at 5:30 PM.

Read with friends.

At Silent Reading Parties there’s no assigned reading. We gather in bars, cafés, and many other community spaces to read together in quiet camaraderie.

All readers are welcome—ebooks or audiobooks, poetry or prose, fiction or non-fiction… it’s BYOBook.

Welcome to introvert happy hour!
