Willimantic, Connecticut, USA (Reframe: A Dry Spot)

Willimantic, Connecticut, USA (Reframe: A Dry Spot)

Reframe is a nonalcoholic bar and lounge recently opened in Willimantic, Connecticut. It is designed to be a space where people can spend time with friends and make new friends, to go out and celebrate. We aim to reframe what it means to be sober. I want to bring people into the space and I think a Silent Book Club is right in line with Reframe's mission: a chance to try socializing without alcohol, a safe space to spend time and not feel a need to drink, and a chance to be themselves. I love the idea of a space to be, to carve out time for self-care like reading, and a place to make new connections.

Hamden, Connecticut, USA

Hamden, Connecticut, USA
Join us for an evening of introvert-friendly socializing at the Hamden chapter of the Silent Book Club! We’ll be meeting every month in Hamden. There’s an hour of dedicated reading time, before and after which there will be time to socialize as much or as little as you like.

We’re aiming for a very low-key event here. There’s no pressure to talk to anybody, and certainly no pressure to read any particular book or genre. We’re also keeping the numbers reasonably small to keep it from becoming overwhelming. Hope to see you there!
