Ever wondered about why your neighbour does what they do but been too timid to ask? Maybe they have a unique way of styling themselves and you want to know how they do it and what it represents. Or they eat certain foods and avoid other ones. Maybe they practise a different religion to you that you know very little about.

Join us for a two-hour Human Library event that will challenge stereotypes and prejudices about your neighbour through dialogue. It will be Social Inclusion Week and Azure Beach Public Library would like to shine a spotlight in breaking down barriers with our increasingly diverse community. Ask one of the 30 human book volunteers from China, Syria, India, Iran, Afghanistan, New Zealand, the UK, and our own Indigenous community what you’ve been curious about from their culture – don’t be shy, there couldn’t be a safer place to do so.
