We partner with the Florham Park Education Foundation every year to conduct a community conversation centered on ways we can work together to make Florham Park a better place! These discussions follow a dialog-to-action structure intended to encourage participants to work together toward a common cause. This year we will use The Connected Community: Discovering the Health, Wealth, and Power of Neighborhoods by Cormac Russell as a discussion guide.
Last year, we discussed Florham Park's reputation as a "Community of Volunteers" and dreamt up ways we could increase the ranks of people who donate their time to support goings-on around town. The result was a community calendar that advertises different events and meetings happening in Florham Park, and the Library's first ever "All About Florham Park Day." Community Conversations are open to all Florham Park residents to participate. Registration is strongly encouraged, but not strictly necessary. The first 30 people to sign up will receive a complimentary copy of The Connected Community to keep for their personal collection.
This year's conversation will continue on the theme of civic participation and volunteerism, and will take place on Tuesday evenings, February 21 and 28, and March 7, 14, and 21 at 7:00pm. The first and last meetings will take place in-person at the Library, and the others will be held virtually.
Registration for this event has now closed.
