October Book Club- In the Distance by Hernan Diaz
October 6, 2019 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Join us for October’s book club discussion about In the Distance by Hernan Diaz.
Excerpt from The Guardian review:
Hernan Diaz’s captivating debut novel opens with an unforgettable scene: a huge, unnamed man – naked, grizzled and old – hauling himself through a star-shaped hole in the Alaskan ice from the freezing waters beneath, up on to the solid surface of the floe. It’s an extraordinary image, and one which, by the novel’s end, will have become even more powerful.

Inclement Weather Policy
The Arts Alliance of Greater Waynesboro (AAGW) recognizes the fact that inclement weather can affect the organizations’s ability to be open for business, hold events, and the employees’ and volunteers’ abilities to get to and attend events. The safety of the AAGW’s employees and volunteers is paramount to the organization. If any of the following events occur, Gallery 50, Music Makers, and all events associated with the AAGW are considered cancelled for that day:
(1) The governor declares a weather emergency and asks people to stay off the roads
(2) Waynesboro Area School District cancels school or after-school activities due to inclement weather
(3) Penn State Mont Alto cancels evening classes.
The AAGW will make every attempt to update social media to reflect the cancellation by 3pm for any evening events and by 8:30am for any morning events, but any notification stating one of the (3) events listed above has occurred should be considered notification of the cancellation.
