What is it?

A slow-reading event is a low-pressure, low-stakes opportunity to engage with our library materials.

Kinfolk Families will be on hand to give you suggestions and chat with you about what you’re reading… something inspire you? Let us know! Wanna know what we think about one of the books? Ask us!

During a slow reading event, we'll explore how we can have dialogue about the things in the library across time and space and if you can learn from a book without having to read it all… we’re trying out some new tools and techniques to figure out what that looks like.

Who is it for?

Our slow reading events are for anyone with an interest in family-making, radical care, or alternative or marginalised ways of living (intentional flat sharing, chosen family, communal living, co-operative living, intergenerational living, fostering, adoption, polycules etc. etc.)

Want to book a slow-reading drop-in?

We’d love to host a slow reading event for you. We’ve popped-up at exhibitions, markets and community engagement days. Email Rebecca at hello@kinfolkfamilies.info for more info.

What’s the cost to attend?

Totally free! However, as Kinfolk Families is currently volunteer run, then a donation would be much appreciate. You can also buy books from us which helps to support our ongoing work.
