Afternoon Tea Book Club: The Art Forger

Settle in with a cuppa home brew and chat with other book folk!
 
All are welcome to the Afternoon Tea Book Club. Whether you are well-seasoned in book clubs or have never been in one, we invite you to participate. Drop-in, registration not required.
 
 
This month we’re reading The Art Forger by Barbara Shapiro. 
 
Boston painter Claire Roth has survived financially by painting reproductions, so when influential gallery owner Aiden Markel arrives with a bizarre proposal-- her own show if she will forge a copy of a Degas, one of the pictures stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum-- she agrees.
 
 
Pick up the book at the library and join us for a good discussion at Cates Park. If you need help locating a copy of the book, call your local branch. E-book and audiobook copies are available through the Libby app.
 
 
No registration required. Call 604-929-3727, ext. 8166 for more information.
 
This month, we're meeting at Cates Park/Whey-ah-Wichen (4141 Dollarton Hwy) at the covered shelter by the boat launch/jetty.
 
Bring a mug of hot or cold tea and a lawn chair if you’d like really comfortable seating!
