Join us for the first annual Riverside Read, taking place in Riverside Park in Guelph! This FREE event, hosted by the Eden Mills Writers' Festival and the Guelph Public Library, is a chance to chill in the park with a good book, play book-ish lawn games with new friends and enjoy a beautiful afternoon in community. Oh, and did we mention there will be bespoke ice cream inspired by our favourite books?
All you need to bring is yourself, a blanket or chair ... and your imagination. BYO(Book), or find a great new read at the Bookmobile!
