Book Club

---

The AF DuPage Book Club meetings are conducted in French and are held on the second Wednesday of the month. Meetings start at 6:30 pm unless otherwise indicated and last 1½ - 2 hours.

All book club sessions will be held on Zoom until further notice.

AF DuPage would like to welcome long-time Book Club member Mike Wrzesinski as the new Book Club Coordinator. Please contact Mike at mwrzesinski@att.net to receive the Zoom link and discussion questions.
