This after-school meet up is for middle schoolers who love culture (books, movies, tv, music, video games, theater, art, dance, etc.) and have strong opinions about it! We'll talk about the things we love and hate and try to figure out why, and how our opinions reflect who we are and the culture we live in.

Snacks provided by the Friends of the Leavenworth Library.
