Embark on a fascinating journey with us through our new program series, where we delve into cultures and events through the lens of literature.

Before our meeting, we invite you to select and read a book of your choice, set in one of the Caribbean Islands or featuring protagonists from the area. This unique approach allows us to not only discuss the books we've read but also gain insights into the Caribbean Islands and their rich cultural heritage. To add a touch of creativity, we'll also be crafting something inspired by Caribbean culture. We value your participation and look forward to your unique perspectives.

This program is intended for youth ages 12-18, younger participants may have difficulty with the projects and/or concepts.

Registration is required.

If you have any questions or book suggestions please email Laura Johnson at ljohnson@ccplonline.org or call 301-375-7375.
