Take a break and join us for
this virtual meet-up and conversation with the patrons and librarians of the
Cape Elizabeth, Scarborough, and South Portland Maine. Bring along your
curiosity and your favorite warm beverage to enjoy as we virtually connect with
our Maine friends. Coffee, tea and conversation — no agenda, just a chance to
meet, chat and connect with fellow human beings living on the opposite side of
the country (4500 miles away!!).
The people of these communities have been
reading This is Chance! The Shaking of an All American City by Jon Mooallem and
they are eager to hear our earthquake stories and life in Alaska!
Come join us in expanding the idea of just
how big a Community can be!
