MyBB Bookclub Extra
Join us online or in person for a stimulating monthly experience for book lovers everywhere! The MyBB Bookclub Extra is a unique opportunity to explore a diverse range of themes and issues coming out of books written by African Diaspora authors, poets and essayists. Join fellow book-lovers in discussing the issues, sharing your views and appreciating the talents and perspectives of well and lesser-known writers.
Each session will provide an opportunity for guided learning, discussion, group exercises and analysis. You can purchase a place for the current month or access savings by paying in advance for 3, 6 or 12 sessions. Attend online via Zoom or join us in person at The Legacy Centre where refreshments will also be provided. Your payment includes:
- a free book for each session (shipping not included)*
- refreshments (if you are attending in person)
- all additional handouts and session materials (emailed to you)
- input by authors for some sessions
- guided input/insight from knowledgeable facilitators
If you are able, please consider purchasing a gift a session ticket in addition to your own. This will go towards providing a subsidised space to a person who would like to benefit from Bookclub Extra but cannot afford to.
