As part of the 2024 One Book, One Community reading project, the Fargo Public Library will host a five-part writing and reflection series titled “Connections: Finding Balance Between Self-Care and Community.” In this workshop series, participants will read poetry, discuss and write for greater wellbeing in order to understand and celebrate our need for connection and community.
