Sunday Reading Meetup (7/20/25)
Hello friends (and soon-to-be friends)!
Let’s (once again) get together in real life and read (alongside other human beings).
There’s no cost (it’s free!)—this is just an excuse to be around people, read a book, and if you’re feeling social, talk about books and make some new friends.
Note: If you’d like to receive emails about either the ‘Sunday Reading Meetup’ or the ‘MKE Do Things In Person List’ but not both, go to your account page and click the little toggle to turn off the one you don’t want to receive (you can change this any time you like).
Here are the details:
When:
1:00pm-2:00pm
Sunday, July 20
Where:
Kuumba Juice & Coffee
274 E Keefe Ave (corner of E Keefe and N Richards)
Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53212
Bring:
Something to read (can be paperback book or Kindle, an audiobook plus paper to doodle on, a magazine—whatever you like)
Earplugs or headphones if you find coffeeshop hubbub and/or background music distracting (they make good playlists, but sometimes the music is a little loud)
What to Expect:
Show up a little early if you want to socialize (I’ll be there about 15 minutes beforehand).
Grab a seat and a drink and/or food. Say hi to your fellow readers and/or get cozy in your own bubble.
We’ll read quietly for an hour, from 1:00pm-2:00pm.
Hang out as long as you want after that: I’ll probably ask about what you’re reading if you’re keen to chat a bit :)
Reminders:
Subscribe (free) to receive email reminders about this and future events—but this is just for convenience! You do not have to subscribe or RSVP to attend, just show up :)
Cost:
Free!
Though please buy a drink or some food to support the business. You can see photos of their menu on their Facebook page: they have a lot of delicious stuff, and their coffee is just a few bucks, if you’re on a budget.
Parking/Transportation:
Very walkable area, there’s abundant street parking (I usually park just north of Keefe on Richards), and the Holton & Keefe bus stop (15 bus) is just two blocks away.
Let me know if you have any questions, and I hope to see you there!
