[CANCELLED] Sustaining Community: A Climate Change Book Group (Main)
The climate is changing, and we're all here on the planet together. Join us for a monthly community gathering and discussion of a variety of books about climate change. We will share thoughts, resources, and occasionally host special guests in a welcoming small-group environment.
For our January meeting, we will discuss Human Nature: nine ways to feel about our changing planet by Kate Marvel.
Copies of the book are available at the Main Library Q&A Desk.
Registration is required. Please contact alengel@cambridgema.gov with questions.

After the performance, the audience will be invited to try on the lion heads and take photos. Recommended for children of all ages and their caregivers. Bring the whole family for a unforgettable experience!
