Cookbook Collective
Thursday, October 15, 2026 at 6:30 pm
This month’s selection: Good Lookin’ Cookin’ by Dolly Parton and Rachel Parton George
You’re invited to pull up a chair to a year of meals, friends, and fun with the Parton’s, as Dolly and her sister (and favorite cook) Rachel share beloved, crowd-pleasing recipes and family stories.
Love trying new recipes? Curious about different cuisines? Join us for our newest book club, the Cookbook Collective at the library! Each month we explore a new cookbook, share our cooking adventures, and—best of all—taste test each other’s creations. Whether you’re a kitchen newbie or a seasoned home chef, this is your chance to swap tips, discover new flavors, and connect with fellow food lovers. Bring a dish you’ve made from the month’s cookbook and an appetite for good conversation!

Looking for a cozy spot to write in our community? Join freelance writer Leah Allen-Manning for a weekly writers’ accountability group! Whether you’re writing essays, short stories, poems, or the next Great American Novel, all are welcome.
Bring your own work or respond to an optional writing prompt to get started. (Note this is not a workshop, so sharing your writing with the group is completely optional.)
This program is for grownups. If you find that disappointing, please reach out to Justin at jsnook@cwmars.org with the age of interested participants and we’ll see if we can collect enough to get a youth writing group started.
