Save the dates . . . the next Big Blue Book Club will be held on Thursdays, September 10-24 and the book is The Art of Gathering: How we meet and why it matters by Priya Parker. In Extension we meet all the time. This book explores how to make gatherings more productive and meaningful by focusing on purpose, design and participant experience.
