This Books & Wine event is an intimate literary gathering designed for people who crave meaningful conversation, cultural reflection, and a softer way to connect.
Hosted by Engage & Elevate Collective, LLC at the Black English Bookstore in Tampa, this evening centers "Neighbors" by Diane Oliver, a powerful collection that invites us to examine identity, belonging, tension, and the stories we carry about the people around us.
You do not have to finish the entire book to attend. Together, we’ll read a selected passage, ease into thoughtful discussion, and create space for reflection over wine, light refreshments, and conversation that lingers beyond the final page.

What you can expect:
*A warm, intimate bookstore atmosphere designed for meaningful connection
*A guided reading selection and discussion, so you can fully participate even if you have not finished the book
*Thought-provoking conversation around story, identity, community, and reflection
*One glass of wine included with your ticket, plus light refreshments
*A relaxed evening to meet like-minded individuals who value depth, culture, and intentional experiences
Tickets are $50 and available now at www.engage-elevate.com.
