Silent Book Club Beaufort Begins at the Pat Conroy Literary Center
Silent Book Club Beaufort, a unique take on the traditional book club, is set to launch Saturday, January 11, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center, 601 Bladen St.
Designed to offer a relaxed and pressure-free space for readers of all types, this community gathering invites book lovers to enjoy their current reads in a welcoming and peaceful atmosphere.
This special event will be co-sponsored by the Conroy Center and the student book club DAYLO (Diversity Awareness Youth Literacy Organization), bringing together two organizations dedicated to fostering community connections and celebrating the love of literature.
Unlike traditional book clubs, Silent Book Club Beaufort has no assigned reading, no deadlines, and no discussions required. Whether you prefer ebooks, audiobooks, comic books, textbooks, or paperbacks, readers are invited to bring their book of choice, settle in, and savor the joy of uninterrupted reading among like-minded individuals.
“Our gatherings are designed to provide a relaxed environment where readers can unwind, find inspiration, and connect with others,” said Silent Book Club host and organizer Ashley Meijerink. “There are no expectations, no assignments—just an opportunity to enjoy great books and meaningful connections.”
The casual meetups provide an excellent opportunity to discover new book recommendations, make friends, and reconnect with the love of reading. Whether you’re a lifelong bookworm or just getting back into reading, everyone is welcome. Participants can drop in late or leave early to fit their schedules, with the simple request to arrive 5-10 minutes early to avoid disruptions.
Silent Book Club Beaufort is free to attend and proudly supports local businesses and organizations. Additional dates and locations will be announced soon via the SBCB Instagram page at www.instagram.com/silentbookclubbeaufort. Come embrace the joy of reading at Silent Book Club Beaufort!
