Read With Art: Silent Book Club at the CMA
Saturday, May 18 | 9:00 – 11:00 a.m. | Silent reading hour 9:30 – 10:30 a.m.
Join Jemia Williams, avid reader and Columbia’s Silent Book Club official host, for a morning celebrating literature and art. Whether you're seeking solitude for quiet reflection or eager to connect with fellow bookworms, this event offers a welcoming space to come together and share your love for the written word.
There is no assigned reading — simply bring along your current book and enjoy reading in the museum with art. Take the first half hour to settle in with light refreshments and then spend the next hour in silent reading. During the last half hour, attendees are welcome to continue reading, explore the galleries, socialize, or take a look at some CMA staff picks to find a new read connected to the visual arts.
Free. Registration required as space is limited. Gallery admission included.
This program has reached capacity.
We encourage you to sign up for any of its other dates: June 27 (evening), and July 20 (morning).
