FAQs
- Can I come alone?
Absolutely. Most people attend on their own the first time before becoming regular OWBC members. We also welcome new attendees at every event, so you'll be in good company regardless.
- Can I come if I haven't finished the book?
Yes. You're welcome to attend just for book recommendations and wine tasting. There is no requirement to discuss or participate in book discussions.
