Meet the second Thursday evening of every month at Akronym Brewing to think and drink like the ancient Greek philosophers! The Library does not provide food and drink; however, a drink discount for beer/wine on tap is available.

In October, we will be reading and discussing “This Is What It Sounds Like” by Susan Rogers and Ogi Ogas. In this Behavior Scientists' Notable Book of 2022, Rogers and Ogas break down the dimensions of song so that readers can better understand the why behind their favorites and construct a personal "listener profile."
