“Books and Tea” is a monthly meeting for bookworms and tea drinkers. Bring a book you’ve really enjoyed, talk about it and pass it on! The group meets at 1PM. The place will be Le Jardin du Musée des Beaux-arts (entrance either through the Musée itself or Boulevard du Roi René or 47 rue Toussaint)

Don’t forget to bring your own picnic!
No need to sign up, just come and enjoy!

Treat yourself to an afternoon of a collective reading of one of Shakespeare’s plays. This activity consists of watching a BBC production on DVD and then reading relative scenes. This is a great activity for lovers of language and fans of the great wit. Free and open to all library members. For more information or to sign-up, please contact the group coordinator here. The number of participants is limited.

The garden club invites you to discover the beautiful gardens in the area! Some members enjoy having lunch at a restaurant prior to the visits and others only take part in the visits.

The July visit will be at the Jardin des Plantes in Nantes with (optional) lunch beforehand at the Café de l’Orangerie in the Jardin.  The Jardin des Plantes in Nantes is one of four “grands” botanic gardens in France, having more than 10,000 species of plants, 800 square meters of greenhouses, and 50,000 flowers.  If you are interested, you must sign up before June 15 at the email address below.

The “Garden Club” activity is open to library members and offers visits once a month to a garden between April and October. For more information and/or to sign up for this visit, please send an email to Diane Bonneau  at gardenclubellia@yahoo.com.
