Join us for our very first official book club gathering at Zora’s Place—held in partnership with Black Women of Evanston!
About this Event

We’re kicking things off with a timeless classic: by bell hooks, a book that continues to shape how we think, feel, and practice love in all its forms.

Whether you’re reading it for the first time or returning to its wisdom, come ready for a rich, honest, joy-filled conversation in community with Black women. Expect thoughtful dialogue, warm company, and a space where your voice matters.

What to Expect:

  • Guided group discussion
  • Light refreshments
  • A cozy, affirming environment built for connection
  • Time to browse the shelves and shop small

This gathering is in person and open to all who wish to honor and uplift the work of bell hooks and the brilliance of Black women in community.

Seating is limited—reserve your spot early! We can’t wait to welcome you.
