Book Clubs

Details about current selections, meeting schedules and how to join can be found on our Eventbrite page.
Travel & Special Programming
Travel plays an important role in Perasma’s programming. We host events that explore places through literature, culture, and lived experience: including travel talks, destination-focused conversations, and workshops inspired by reading and exploration. These gatherings invite participants to think more deeply about how stories shape the way we move through the world.
The Club Room & Event Space
Many events take place in Perasma’s dedicated Club Room, a space designed for gathering, conversation, and connection while the bookstore remains open. The Club Room allows book clubs, discussions, and workshops to meet comfortably without stepping away from the life of the shop.
For larger gatherings or special occasions, the full bookstore may also be available for private rental, including events held outside regular business hours. Full-store use offers a unique setting for readings, receptions, and community gatherings surrounded by books and conversation.
If you’re interested in hosting an event, renting the Club Room, or inquiring about full-store use, we invite you to get in touch to explore availability and details.
