Reading Rythmns Queens Books & Blankets

​You’re invited!

​Books & Blankets

​Join Reading Rhythms Queens for a relaxed Sunday morning in Astoria Park.

​Before summer gently gives way to fall, join us for a leisurely morning of books, conversation, and community overlooking the East River, where the city's industrial waterfront meets open green space.

​Bring the book you're currently reading and settle in on the lawn beneath the shade of a beautiful tree. Whether you're discovering a new favorite, exchanging recommendations, or simply enjoying the company of fellow readers, Books & Blankets is an invitation to slow down and savor the season together.

​Finding us is easy:
Enter Astoria Park from 23rd Road and follow the path down the hill toward the water. You'll find us on the large lawn beneath the big tree, gathered on our signature Reading Rhythms plaid blanket, just to the right of the playground.

​What to bring:

​📚 The book you're currently reading.
🧺 Your favorite blanket or beach towel to create your own cozy reading spot. Pillows are always welcome!
☕ Your favorite coffee, tea, or morning beverage.
🥐 A brown bag breakfast or early lunch.

​Please note that coffee and food options are not conveniently located near this area of the park, so we recommend picking up anything you'd like to enjoy before you arrive.

​Bring a book, pack a blanket, and join us for a beautiful morning in the park. We can't wait to see you!

​Reading Rhythms is a series of welcoming reading parties designed to make it easy for people to gather and read socially. We invite you to bring any book you want and facilitate silent reading periods, as well as 1-on-1 breakouts, and group discussions to pull on the threads of the books that everyone is engaging with.

​In a world that can often feel devoid of interest and meaningful connection, we bring readers together to reconnect with our love of learning, to experience the wonder of beautiful venues and curated music, and to gather amongst all of the people who want to be in that very same room.

​Our favorite conversations happen in the Reading Rhythms mobile app. Join us there → https://readingrhythms.app _________________________________________________________________________________
