[close] Hi Houston Readers! We welcome you to join us on Thursday, January 26th from 6:30-9:00 in our BYOB painting studio, Painting with a Twist - Champion Forest, where we're hosting our very first Last Thursday Book Club and Paint Party! Our address, event description and registration information is included below! For further information about our studio, please visit our website. Our club is inclusive and simple - we'll paint a new book-related artwork every month - customizing our creations to be as unique as us - while we discuss our favorite books! No one is tied to a certain book each month - we're just here to get recommendations, paint, and have FUN! Simply sign up for January's event and come every month thereafter, or just join us on the months you can! No membership necessary, however, registration is required so we can best prepare for you! Please see the following link to our website: https://www.paintingwithatwist.com/studio/houston-champion-forest/event/3258757/ Upon registration, we will email you our discussion rubric, including a plethora of questions like "What is your favorite book?" "Name a character you relate to most." and "What is a book you'd do anything to re-read for the first time?" We highly recommend filling these out before the event, when you're still surrounded by your books and have plenty of time to really think about it! Answer them in your phone notes app or even print it out - you can always wing it during the event though, so no stress! Not a big reader? That's totally okay - join us anyway for some inspo! ADDRESS: 16740 Champion Forest Dr, Spring, TX 77379. We are at the intersection of Louetta & Champion Forest Dr, next to Marcos Pizza in the Fitness Connection shopping center. This is an established business.
