Knowings at Social Grounds
Celebrate the launch of Knowings with Jill Drader, written from the heart of our neighborhood and inspired by moments at local coffee shops like Social Grounds. These cafes served as Jill's sanctuary during her writing journey, providing a space to reflect, escape, and recharge between life’s rhythms—like hockey drop-offs.
This special evening invites neighborhood friends—men, women, and everyone in between—to connect, listen, and celebrate community. Join us for a memorable experience featuring:
• A live reading by Jill from Knowings
• A signed copy of the book (value $25)
• A drink from Social Grounds
• Delicious charcuterie snacks
• An engaging Q&A session with Jill
