Readings on the Farm - Cascais Municipal Library's Community of Readers
A new community of readers has formed at the Municipal Library of Cascais - Casa da Horta da Quinta de Santa Clara. The first participants, who met in June 2024, in what was marked as session 0, named this community of readers “Leituras na Quinta”, which meets on the third Thursday of every month. Manuel Nunes - who has also been in charge of the S. Domingos de Rana Municipal Library's Community of Readers for around 18 years - is in charge of organizing it.
The Community blog,www.leiturasnaquinta.blogspot.com, is now available, where you can check out the reading program, comments on the works, and much more.
