Mackintosh Group of Writers – Evening with at Helensburgh Library

Thursday, December 8th, 2022 at 7 p.m.

The Mackintosh Group of Writers would like to invite you to ‘An Evening with Local Writers at Christmas.

Helensburgh Library, 59 W King St, Helensburgh G84 8EB.

There will be a chance to meet local authors, buy books – signed, many at discount prices with no postage costs and no worrying about ‘Will they arrive in time for Christmas?’ There will be booklets being sold for charity at £1 each. One is for the Dementia Cafe in Helensburgh and the other is Beatson Cancer Research.

Enjoy some short, Christmassy readings as well as wine and seasonal snacks.

As usual the event will be free but it would be helpful if you could let the library know of your intention to attend. Telephone: 01436 658833
