If you are a Varley volunteer and you wish to get to know other volunteers, why not become involved with this active group who meets five times a year at the McKay House on the second Tuesdays of January, April, June, September and November. This year the Book Club is privileged to receive a private tour of The Automatiste Revolution exhibit given by our new Director, Francine Périnet. We are also planning a visit to the Textile Museum in September to coincide with the fall exhibit.
Here are the book selections for 2010. This year’s art novel is the story of Frank Lloyd Wright entitled, Loving Frank by Nancy Horan. Other novels are The Help by Kathryn Stockett, The Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill, The Guernsey Literary Pie by Mary Ann Shaffer, The Last Concubine by Lesley Downer.
Members of this popular and successful book club are committed to serving the Varley and in doing so they enrich their lives with art related events. The camaraderie amongst the members who share a love of art and books is just the icing on the cake.
