Ink & Ingredients Book Club

Ink & Ingredients returns at The Durham Hotel for an evening built around Curvy Girl Summer, a story about a woman who spends a whole summer searching for something extraordinary, only to find it was right in front of her. Sound familiar?

Your ticket includes a drink from the Durham Hotel bar on arrival, and then get to work, mixing mocktails together the way the book's bartender does it: with care, with flair, and with the understanding that what you put in is exactly what you get out.

Reflect on the book's big questions, learn a few real techniques, and spend the evening in good company doing exactly what you deserve to be doing.

What to expect:

A welcome drink from the bar included with your ticket

Hands-on mocktail lesson inspired by the book

Guided reflection prompts connected to the story

Community, conversation, and something good to sip
