Event Series Event Series: Tomes & Tombs VIRTUAL Book Club

Tombs and Tomes is Congressional Cemetery’s book club. We meet every other month in our historic Chapel (currently meeting on Zoom), and we discuss primarily non-fiction books. Our book selections have no rhyme and reason; however, our choices tend to stray towards the macabre, as is natural for a cemetery book club.

Our very first meeting was in September 2013 and we chose to read Stiff, by Mary Roach (pictured here with Doug Graves, Congressional Cemetery’s mascot and NOT a real skeleton!).

Currently, the meetings are hosted on Zoom. When you sign up, you will receive an email with instructions on how to join the meeting.

It’s free to join, and mostly free to attend. For each meeting, we simply ask that you bring either a donation or a bit of food or wine to share with the group. Extra points for brownies! (when we meet in person)
