Do you enjoy reading books but don't want to join a book club because you don't want the assigned reading commitment? If you can relate, then the Silent Book Club at Gammelgården Museum Chapter is for you!

With our book club, you can read any book you want! You may either bring your own book, read one from the museum's resource library, or purchase a book in the museum's gift shop (Butik). Just think about those silent reading days in school, but now you live for the days when you can return to reading.

We'll meet at Gammelgården, choose your book (if you didn't bring one from home), and socialize for the first thirty minutes.

We read silently for one hour.

We socialize for the last thirty minutes - either talking about the books we are reading, looking at the museum's exhibits and displays, or taking a walk on the museum's 11 acres.

We go home knowing we met great people, enjoyed being at a museum, and finally set aside time to read our to-be-read book(s).

Our Silent Book Club was created to provide a safe space for individuals to be around others without the pressure to read a specific book or answer questions. Bring your own book, have a seat, and read quietly. Seating will be in the coffee bar on the main level, and outdoor seating in the back garden will be available if weather permits.
