Join us for the final of three book talks and expert panel discussions on Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation.
Please consider bringing your kids if childcare is a concern (pre-school age and older). We will have a supervised space with activity pages for children to gather and talk with one of our adults, secluded off to the side during the adult-centered discussion. It is not necessary to have read the book to participate.
For this first talk we'll take a deeper dive into The Backstory: The Decline of the Play-Based Childhood.
Tuesday, February 24 at 7 p.m.
Upstairs at Park Books, 579 Baltimore-Annapolis Blvd., Severna Park, MD 21146
