Join us as we read and talk about some of the greatest science fiction tales ever written! We’ll check out stories by writers like Isaac Asimov, Ursula K. Le Guin, Ray Bradbury, and many others. Whether you’re new to sci-fi or a seasoned nerd, short stories are great introductions to various authors, themes, and sub-genres like hard sci-fi, cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic, and dystopian alternate history. Plus, short stories are quick to read and don’t require the commitment of long novels. About me: My name is Kai and I’ve been a reader of science fiction all my life, starting with the Choose Your Own Adventure series in middle school. I eventually discovered writers like Isaac Asimov, George Orwell, and Philip K. Dick. Sci-fi for me has always been a playground of ideas, and my favorite stories – whether they’re about encountering aliens, colonizing other worlds, or surviving an apocalypse – show me new ways to look at human nature and our place in the universe. We’ll meet on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month, from 1-3pm. Anyone 13 and up is welcome. Drinks and snacks will be provided.

Join Sean Gaskell for a free performance on Sunday, May 11 at 2pm at Curry Public Library. Sean Gaskell features songs on the kora- a 21 stringed West African harp.
