Twice a year, WCIA hosts a conversation that begins with a book. Join us for a winter or summer event where we learn from the text and each other.
Winter 2026 Book Club
Join us for a community reading and book discussion. This winter, we are heading back in time to prohibition-era Cincinnati with The Ghosts of Eden Park by Karen Abbott.
The creepy and atmospheric page-turner recounts the rise and fall of the infamous bootlegger George Remus, a lawyer-turned-criminal who never drank a drop of whiskey but built a lucrative empire. Every line of dialog in the book is taken from a primary source.
Join us Thursday, February 19 at 6:00 pm at the Work+Shop.
